Opinions of the Press.
Slater's Royal National Commercial Directory of Yorkshire, to give the great volume its full title, has just been
issued in a tenth edition. If it were not possible to get the work in divisions of Ridings, objection might be taken to
the heaviness of the volume for the whole of the county. Seeing the enormous number of names of persons, places,
and things to be dealt with in such a work, the absence of serious errors is remarkable. The work also has been
brought down as near to data as could be expested in an undertaking of such magnitude. The arrangement is
excellent. A new feature is a list of the gentry and private residents in each district. The alphabetical and
classified trades lists are convenient. There has evidently been no room for a street list, and to a similar reason we
suppose is due the omission of many householders who are employed in offices, shops, &c. A table of contents
faciliates greatly a reference to any particular place. — Leeds Mercury.
The tenth edition of this useful tome has just been published. It is an improvement on previous editions in
several respects. In order to facilitate reference, a table of contents, explaining the order and arrangement of the
book is given for the first time, other welcome novelties being a list of the gentry in each place, and alphabetical and
'assified trades list for every town and district in the county. The whole work bears evidence of great care in its
mpilation, a cursory examination of its multitudinous pages showing that a remarkable degree of accuracy has
1 attained, and the publisher is to bo congratulated on having succeeded in making " Slater's Directory of
i- ' :-e" more indispensable than ever to business men in all the three Ridings. — Yorkshire Post.
It has full and accurate information of everybody in the great county, about whom a commercial or business
. 'in \i ,:kely to enquire. In point of size the directory is about as bulky as that of London. — Eastern Morning News,
It will be welcomed not only by commercial men for the mass of trade information it contains, but by all who
are desirous of possessing a book to which they can refer with the certainty of finding whatever they may wish to
learn in relation to the public buildings, institutions, magistrates, and public officials of every town inthe county.
. York Herald.
In addition to good indices, Bearch in the directory is aided by a distinctive colouring and labelling of the
margin of the leaves dealing with respective towns, which enables the desired district to be found in a moment. In
a volume five inches thick, and containing such a large mass of information, this is a matter of some consequence.
Bradford Daily Telegraph.
Slater's Directories have been long and favourably known, and the name is quite sufficient to many, without
any recommendation whatever. — Barnsley Chronicle.
After careful examination and comparison, we are bound to give it the palm as being the most complete
directory we have yet seen. — Wakefield Evening Herald.
The reputation of " Slater's," so long established in this line of literature, appears to bo well maintained in
this most recent production. — Bradford Observer.
Great care has evidently been exercised in its compilation, and the directory should be a vade mecum to all
classes of the trading community and others who have frequently to consult a book of the kind. — Barnsley Independent.
The work imparts much interesting information with regard to the county of broad acres and its various centres
of industry and population. — North-Eastern Daily Gazette.
Slater's directories have now stood the test of ninety years' experience, and need no further recommendation.—
Manchester Guardian,
The work will be found an invaluable and trustworthy guide to business men.— Manchester Examiner and Times,
... Tfiongu of ponderous proportions, the work is simplicity itself for reference. The minutest hamlet, though
hidden from view among the moors and wolds, can be found without difficulty by referring to a well-contrived index.
The directory is provided with admirably executed maps.— Manchester Courier.
For the tenth time Mr. Isaac Slater has issued his directory for the whole of the towns and villages of
Yorkshire— a gigantic undertaking, carried out with the skill, accuracy, and perfect fidelity which have characterized
the productions of the firm for nearly one hundred years. Maps, plans, indexes, and various other excellent
arrangements, facilitate easy reference ; and the immense book is at once a model of perfect organization —

Address.
The -present is the ELEVENTH EDITION of the Directory of
Scotland issued by the Proprietor and Publisher of this work.
Some modifications, suggested by experience and by numerous
subscribers, have been introduced in this edition; notably, the
lists of the Nobility, Gentry and Clergy, as ivell as those of the
Farmers and Factors. These have been changed from the
scattered positions where in other editions they appeared. They
are now complete lists, divided into Counties, following
the Directory of Glasgow, an arrangement that will, it is hoped,
much conduce to simplicity and convenience of reference.
A farther alteration ivhich must be referred to, is the placing
of the County portion of the Directory before the Cities of
Edinburgh and Glasgow. With these exceptions, the volume
appears in its well-known form, and includes all the features
that have characterised it in the past, and will be found to be
not less useful and trustworthy than its predecessors.
The Proprietor has the honour to acknowledge the assist-
ance received from many persons during the compilation of the
Directory, and to all such he now offers his sincere thanks.

A CONCISE EPITOME
OF THE
HISTORY OF SCOTLAND.
OCOTLA.ND is extremely irregular in it3 fignre, anil is separated on the s.E. by the Solway Firth and the Cheviot Hills from England,
k? It ia bo broken up by promotories projecting hir into the sea, and by flrths, or arms of the sea, deeply indenting the land, that there
are few points which are more than forty miles Itoin salt water— a great portion of the interior lyiug within thirty miles of the sea.
A line drawn on the mainland of Scotland, from tho most southerly point of the Mull of Galloway, ia lat. 54 deg. 38 min. n. to Duunet
Head, its mostly northerly point, in lat. 54 deg. 4(J min. 30 sec. is about 280 miles in length. Its breadth is extremely various, in con-
sequence of the deep indentations produced by the firths. Taking the extreme breadth, however, of the solid part of the mainland — viz.,
from Buchan Ness point, on the Aberdeenshire coast, to Rowanmoan point, on the west coast of Ross-shire, the distance is about 146 miles.
In the southern portion of Scotland, from St. Abb's Head, in Berwickshire, to the point of Knapp, in Argyleshire, the distance is about
139 miles ; ou the other hand, the breadth of the island between some of the firths is very small. Thus, between Alloa, on the Firth of
Forth, on the east coast, and Dumbarton, on the Firth of Clyde, on the west coast, the distance is only 32 miles; while from L
Broom, ou the west coast, to the Firth of Dornock, on the east coust, the breadth is but 24 miles. The superficial contents are com-
puted to be 30,463 square miles, or 19,490,132 statute acres, of which only 4,811,813 are under crop, in the bare fallow, or in grass — that
is to say, that about one fourth of the acreage of Scotland is under cultivation.
Early History. — The earliest mention made of this portion of Britain by any historian is by Tacitus, who flourished about
one hundred years after Christ. Tie origiual population seems to iiave consisted of Ciuibrians, from the Clmbric Cheronese, the modern
Jutland. About two centuries before the Christian era tue Cimbrians appear to have been driven to the south of Scotland by the
Caledonians, or Picts, a Gothic colony from Norway. Tacitus denominates the country Caledonia; the venerable Bede, who wrote
about the year 700, names the country the Province of the Picts; and Alfred tho Great, who translated his history into the Anglo-Saxon
tongue, about the year 8d2, called the people Piohts, and the country Piohtland. From the Picts then, or Piohts, probably originates
the populatiou of the Lowlands, the Lowlauders having beeu, iu all ages, a distinct people from those of the western Highlands. In
the tenth and eleventh ceuturies, the name of Scotia, previously applied to Ireland, was given to modern Scotland, by which title it
is designated by Adam of Bremen. About 258 years after Christ, the Dalraids of Bede, the Attacotti of the Roman writers, passed or
re-passed from Ireland into Argyleshire, and became the progenitors of the Scottish Highlanders, who apeak the Irish or Celtic language
while the Lowlauders have always used the Scandinavian or Gothic. Fergus I., who is supposed to have reigned about 330 years before
Christ, is said to be the fouuder of the Scottish monarchy. From him, till tue year 1000, there are reckoned eighty-two kings • after
which, till Britain became subject to one monarch, the succession was as follows: — Malcolm II. ; Duncan I. ; Macbeath (or Macbeth) ■
Malcolm III. ; Donald VII.; Duncan II. ; Edg;vr; Alexauderl.; David I.; Malcolm IV.; "William; Alexander II ; Alexander III; John
Baliol; Robert Bruue ; Edward Baliul; David II; Robert II. ; Robert IU, ; James I. ; James II; James III. ; James IV. ; JaniesV. ; Mary •
James VI. In 1603, on the deatli of Queen Elizabeth, James VI. of Scotland ascended the English throne, and constantly resided in
England, he and his successors calling themselves kings of England and Scotland, and each country haviug a separate parliament till
the year 1707, wrhen, during the reign of Queen Anne, both kingdoms were united under the general name of Great Britain.
Surface, Climate, Ac— The most remarkable, and, perhaps, the most distinctive feature of Scotland is her mountains. The principal
ones are the Grampiau bills, which run from east to west — from near Aberdeen to Cowal, in Argyleshire, almost the whole breadth of the
kingdom. Another chain of mountains, called the Peutland hills, runs through Lothian, and joins those of Tweedale. A third called
Lauimermuir, rises near the eastern coast, and runs westward through the Merse. Besides the continued chains, among which may bo
reckoned the Cheviot,or Teviot, hills, on the borders of England, Scotland contains many detached mountains, some of them of stupendous
height. Ben Nevis, in Inverness, the highest mountain in Scotland, is 4,370 feet above the level of the sea; Cairngorm, in Banff Ben
Laweis, in Perth, Braerlach, in Aberdeen, aud some others, are not much inferior iu altitude. The general surface of the country is
siugularly irregular, being, on the whole, hilly or mountainous, more especially the northern district, which comprehends nearly two-
thirds of Scotland, and forms what is called the Highlands, extending irum Dumbarton nearly to the extremity of of the island about
200 miles. Nothing can be more awful to a stranger tuau the appearance of the Highlands, where dusky mountains rise above each other
and lose their heads in the clouds ; while the tremendous rocks nil the mind with dismay, heightened in no small degree by the noise of
numberless torrents, which pour down their steep sides. The gloomy vales and glens below — narrow, deep, and dark — add sublimity to
the scene. The Lowlands, or that part of Scotland not included within the district of the Highlands, may be said to comprise the por-
tion which lies between the Firths of Tay and Clyde, and extends southward to the English frontier, and nearly the whole of Forfarshire.
In this division the proportion of cultivated laud is very considerable, exhibiting, in many parte, verdant plains, watered by copious
streams, and covered with innumerable cattle ; in others, pleasing vicissitudes of gently rising hills aud blending vales, waving with corn
well wooded, and interspersed with flowery meadows. Situated in the midst of the ocean, aud in a high northern latitude, Scotland can-
not boast of a regular climate. It is various, too, in different places; the cold, however, is not so intense as it is in similar latitudes on the
continent. The thermometor does not sink so low during the winter as it does in the vicinity of Loudon. Mountainous countries are
always most subject to rain ; aud Great Britain being a sort of inclined plane, gradually decliniag from wo&t to east, it has been thought
that; on this account, the western coast is more wet. This excess of rain is, perhaps, rather owing to the prevalence of the west wind
whieh brings humidity with it in its course across the Atlantic ; herce we find that more rain generally falls at Greenock than at Glasgow'
and more at Glasgow than at Edinburgh. As a counterbalance to this, vegetation on the eastern coast is checked during the spring
months by cold and pierciug east winds. Notwithstanding all this, the air is in general pure and healthy.
The wild animala are the fox, the badger, the otter, the red deer, the wild roe, the hare and the rabbit ; besides the wild cat the
hedgehog, weasel, squirrel, mole, Ac. There is also proof of others having existed in the country, which are now exterminated namelv
the buffalo, or wild ox, the wolf and the beaver. Of the feathered tribe, pheasants are to be found in the woods, though scarce ■ also
that rare and beautiful bird called canercailz e, or cock of the wood. The ptarmigan, black game and grouse inhabit the he'althy
mountains; in the valleys are partridges ; in the fens, tho snipe aud plover, and in the plains, most of the English singing birds except
the nightingale. '
Rivers, Lakes, and Railways.— -The country abounds with rivers and lakes, which are in general very pure aud transparent and
are well stocked with fish. Most of the rivers have a short course from the mountains to the sea, aud are consequently very rapid. 'The
principal are the Tweed, Forth, Clyde, Tay and Spey, of which the Tay is the largest; they all abound with fine salmon and trout". The
lakes of Scotland are grand and beautiful, and some of them of considerable extent ; their banks are in general clothed with wood and
the scenery is highly picturesque and pleasing. Of these Loch Lomond is the chief, both in extent and beauty, diversified with a number
of small romantic woody islands, and begirt with shores iu some places decorated with wood, in others naked aud majestic. Next to it
may be rankel Loch Ness, whose waters never freeze ; Loch Tay, Loch Awe, Loch Katrine, Loch Earn, Loon Leven and many others are
deserving of the traveller's attention. It is worthy of remark that the name of loch or lake is given, on the western coast, to manv inleta
or arms of the sea. Throughout the whole extent of coast there are fine fisheries. Railways, Ac— This northern portion of the United
Kingdom has successfully emulated the more southern, its facilities of intercommunication with various distant districts River Road
Canal and Rail — lending their respective aids to effect the accomplishment of this great object; and this last-named has of late years
taken a most prominent and valuable Dart in this department of the " country's good," by opening up a rapid means of intercourse with
almost every part of the country. It would be superfluous to give here a list of the railways in operation and progress, every place visited
by a line being specially noticed throughout the work.

Commerce, Manufactures, Minerals, &c— Scotland produces many valuable articlea of commerce ; beside tbe trade in corn, tbe
rearing of black cattle aud sheep for the English market in very considerable. Great attention is paid to the breed of black cattle ; while
the horBes and sheep, originally small, now rival t^iose <>f England. Its woods of oak and fir are considered with proper attention, and
made serviceable to the navy. The mines of cv>al, lead and iron have long been sources of wealth, as have freestone, limestone and
slate, wliioh ate found in various places, and in gre it abundance. The manufacture of paraffin and other oils has been introduced into
several parts, aud bids fair to become one of the staple products of the country. Some attention is also paid to its marbles, which prove
little, if at all, ioferior in colour or polish to those of Italy. Scotland cannot, at present, exhibit many of the precious metals, though
considerable quantities both of goldand silver have at different periods been obtained from her bowels, and it is not improbable that the
time may arrive when these treasures will again he laid open. Copper Las been discovered in many places, though at present it is no-
where wrought to any considerable extent ; but avery rich mine of antimony lias been worked, richer, it is believed, than any at present
known. Most of the gems and precious stones, with the exception of the diamond, have also heen fouud in Scotland. Manufactures of
various kinds are in a very thriving condition. In printed cottons aud figured goods, in shawls &c, it equals those of England ; shawls
especially, for which, and the manufacture of sewing cotton, Paisley has become highly celebrated; and the glass and stoneware are
scarcely surpassed anywhere. In linens, particularly those for the table, Dunfermline has long been famous, whilst for the coarser de-
scriptions Dundee and its neighbourhood are justly oelubratcd. Manufactures of broad cloth, silks, aud gauzes are also upon a respectable
footing. The intercourse with England daily becomes more frequent (thanks to"the rail), to tbe mutual advantage of both countries. This
has the effect of rendering the manners, dress, and language of both alike, and extinguishing all national prejudice.
The Scots are uniformly sober and frusal ; instead of lavishing their gains they are wisely laid by or economically expended to enable
them to live in comfort, and make a respectable appearance. Intelligence is more common thau in most countries, owing to the number
of excellent Bchools, and the cheapness with which education is acquired; and there are few branches of literature in which the Scotch
have failed in attaining a degree or excellence, although they cannot boast of many iiuthors at an early period. Before the abolition of
episcopacy, the ancient church establishment was composed of two archbishoprics and twelve bishoprics. The National relipiou is now
Presbyterian, founded on an equality among its pastors. A very influential and numerous body, denominated " The Free Church of Scot-
land," was constituted in 1843, and tbe members have been increasing in number from that time. The clergy of Scotland are well educated,
and singularly exemplary in their morals. Roman Oathulics, of whom the number is not very considerable, are tolerated, as well as Episcopa-
lians, and various dissenters from the Established Church. There are four Universities — that of St. Andrew, founded in 1412; that of Glasgow,
founded in 1438; that of Aberdeen, founded in 1500 ; and that of Edinburgh, founded by James VI. in 1582. Since the union of the two
kingdoms, which event took place in 1707, the political government has been the same with that of England ; the civil code, however, and
the manner of administering justice are different. Of this and of the principal events which have occurred in Scotland, more particular
notice will be taken in the historical description of Edinburgh. Scotland, though neither so rich nor bo populous as the southern division
of the island, has long borne a name for martial exploits ; and of late she has risen to as great eminence in literature and the arts.
Divisions, Representative System, Population, &c— The mainland of North Britain is naturally divided into three portions. The
extremity is parted from the centre by the Moray Firtb, Loch Ness, Loch Lochy, and Loch Linnhe, counected with each other by tbe
Caledonian Canal. The midland portion is agaiu parted from the southern by the Firths of Forth and Clyde, the River Forth, Ben Lo-
moud, and its oo^norainal lake. These are again unequally subdivided into thirty-three counties, which, in the following table, com-
prising the sheriffdoms, stewavtries, and the bailiewicks, and the chief towus, are arranged according to their situations.

ABERDEENSHIRE.
THIS important and extensive county is situated in the north-east part of Scotland, and is bounded on the north and east by the North
Sea • on the south by the counties of Kincardine, Forfar, and Perth ; and on the west by Inverness-shire and Banffshire. Iu form
it approaches to that of an oval, the length of which, from north-east to south-west, is about eighty-five miles, and its extreme breadth
about forty. It is estimated to comprise 1,970 square miles, or 1,260,025 acres. In point of size Aberdeen ranks as the fourth county, and in
population as the third. There is a characteristic difference to be observed in the inhabitants of Aberdeenshire from those of any other
county in Scotland. They are in general regarded as an active, vigorous, and enterprising race ; and when they emigrate they seldom
fail to succeed. The dialect of the inhabitants, too, is peculiar from those of the south of Scotland ; and to a stranger's ear appears to be
attended with' a slow pronunciation and broad accent. On the sea coasts they have a distinct difference of physiognomical appearance
from other inhabitants of this country ; and attest by this, as well as by their speech, that they are descended from a race which originally
came from the northern regions of Europe, and lixed'tbemselves in this part of Scotland.
Soil Surface, Climate, &c— Towards the sea the land is fertile, and comparatively level ; but a great proportion of the county
lies amidst the wilderness of the central Highlands. More than two-fifths of the cultivated land is under grass, another two-fifths beiug
devoted to oats barley, bere, rye and wheat, whilst less than one-fifth is under potatoes aud turnips, the latter being the most important
crop succeedin*' better in this county than in any other in Scotland. The climate is cold, yet it is less liable to extreme cold than other
districts lying "further south and inland. T tie county is popularly divided into five districts, namely :— Mar, the southernmost,
comprehondsall north of the river Dee, from the sea to the east end of the hill of Beuachio ; Garioch lies north of the Don, bounded by a
Hdffe of hills beginning near the royal burgh of Kintore ; Strathbogie lies to the north-west of Garioch aud south-east of the upper part of
Mar- Formartine east of Garioch, and bounded on the south by the river Don, and on the north and east by the Ythan and the North
Sea*' and Buchan, extending from the Ythan to the Deveron. These five districts are sub-divided into leaser districts or divisious, whose
names are generally descriptive of their appearance and situation. The district of Mar, on the confiues of the sbires of Banff, Inverness,
Perth aud Angus, may be considered as the centre of Scotland, beiog at the greatest distance from the sea in every direction. The
appearance of the'upper part of the district is wild, rugged and mountainous. Towards the east and north-east the county becomes more
level but is in many places moorish and barren ; but the woods, mostly fir, are extousive, producing fiue timber. The rivers Don and
Dee have both their sources in this quarter. Balmoral, the Highland residence of Her Majesty the Queen, and Abergeldie, the seat of His
Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, are in this district. From the top of Craigondarroch, there is, perhaps, oiie of the most grand and
picturesque views in Scotland. At the termination of a deep glen iu Strathdee is the pass of Ballater, which forms the eastern entrance
into the Grampian mountains. The district of Buchan is not so hilly, lying mostly on the east and north coast, but being almost desti-
tute of wood its appearance is bleak aud naked; from the quantities, however, of large timber found in many mosses, no doubt can exist
of its having once been well wooded. Anciently this extensive domain was the property of the Earls of Buchan, on whose attainder, in
1320 Kin^ Robert Bruce divided the land among his adherents. Subsequently the title was revived in the Erskine family, but without a
restoration of the lauds, and the present Earl has no property in this quarter. The districts of Strathbogie, Garioch, aud Formartine are
generally well cultivated. On the coast, to the south of Peterhead, is a remarkable natural feature, called the Bailers of BucJian. They
reoresent a large oval cavity, in depth about one hundred feet, formed by the steep rocks. A natural arch opens into tho sea
attbe eastern end, into which boats are sometimes drawn and dashed to pieces. The mountains of greatest altitude and importance in
Aberdeeushire are— Ben Macdhui, 4,296 feot ; Braeriach, 4,248 ; Cairutoul, 4,241 ; Beu-a-Bourd, 3,924 ; Ben Avon, 3,813; Lochnagar, 3,786 ;
Morven, 2,954; Buck of Cabrach, 2.3G8; Tap o' Noth, 1,852 ; and Benachie, 1,696.
Commerce, Manufactures, Minerals, &c— The making of linen and sail-cloth has been successfully introduced in several parts, the
other branches being the manufacture of flax, cotton and woollens, paper aud envelope making, tanning, distilling, and tho curing of fish and
provisions Shipbuilding, both wood and iron, is carried on at Aberdeen, Peterhead, and Fraserburgh. The sea coast abounds in fish of
great variety and richness, and the river and sea fishing, together, form a great source of wealth to the inhabitants. The herring fishery
is prosecuted on a very extensive scale at Peterhead and Fraserburgh, the harbours of theso places during the fishiug season being crowded
with boats, which has the effect of considerably augmenting the population ; of recent years the herring fishery has also been largely par-
sued at Aberdeen. Peterhead is also engaged in whale aud seal fishiug, the former being carried on in summer off the north-east of
Greenland and in Davis Straits. Granite— grey, blue, and red, is a valuable and extensive production of this county, aud presents an article
of considerable traffic, many thousand tons being convoyed to London, and other distant parts, for paving and buildiug purposes, and for
monuments, tombs, statues, &c; ill is chiefly found in tho neighbourhoods of Aberdeen, Peterhead, Now Pitsligo, and Monymusk. Slate
is also quarried from tho Foudland Hills, Iusch. Other minerals are found in different parts of Aberdeenshire, and are eminently worthy
of notice. In the parish of Old Machar was discovered a valuable mine of manganese ; Leslie produces amianthus, made by the peasants
into snuff boxes and ornaments; plumbago has been found on the banks of tho Deveron; aud near Peterhead, onyx pebbles
are to be met with. The largest rock crystal ever fouud in Scotland was discovered upon the estate of Invercauld in this county ; its size
was nearly that of a child's body at the age of four years. On the same estate have also been obtained amethysts aud aqua-marines,
equal in colour and hardness to those so eagerly sought after in the East. Topazes of great value, provincially called Cairngorm stones,
are also to be met with in Aberdeenshire. Talc, mica, asbestos, and amianthus, commonly called mountain cork, and mountain leather,
are found in Beveral of the hills. At Craig, in the district of Strathbogie, there is a fine flaxen asbestos, both green and white. The county
produces plenty of game, black and red cattle, deer, sheep, horses, &c. A very great proportion of the landholders reside permanently or
occasionally on their estates, and countenance by their presence many valuable improvements. The rearing of plantations and fences,
the introduction of superior breeds of cattle, and better modes of agriculture, have for some time engaged their attention, to the manifest
advantage of the district.
Rivers and Springs and Railways.— The principal rivers of Aberdeenshire are the Dee, the Don, the Ythan, the Ugie, and the
Deveron. These rivers are of great value, from the immense quantity and fineness of the salmon they produce ; but are too rapid to
admit of'navigation to any great extent. The river Ythan deserves particular mention on account of the pearl fishery, formerly carried on
in it with great success. On the Don are seen the princely ruins of Kildrummy Castle, an ancient seat of the Earls of Mar. The Dee runs
through the vale of Strathdee, surrounded by awful fronts of lofty mouutains. At the top of the vale of Braemar, a short way above Mar
Lodge is the noted waterfall called the Linn of Dee. In the valley of Glenmuick there is likewise another picturesque cascade, and a
little below, on the southern banks of the Dee, most romantically situated, are Pannanich Wells, much frequented in summer. On the
sea shore are several remarkable caves, curious pectorations in the rocks, and echoes which reverberate sounds with wonderful distinct-
ness. The main line of railway intersecting Aberdeenshire is the Great North of Scotland and its numerous branches.
Divisions, Representation, &c— This county contains eighty-five parishes and three royal burghs— Aberdeen, Kintore, and
Inverurie The contributory boroughs (or those which, iu conjunction with others, are represented in Parliament) belougiugtothiscounty
are Inverurie, Kintore, and'Peterhead. The city of Aberdeen returns two members— William A. Hunter, Esq., ll.d., barrister, London,
representing the Northern Division, and Jas. Bryce, Esq., Professor of Civil Law at Oxford, the Southern Division. The county also sends
two members the gentleman representing the Eastern Division being Peter Esslemont, Esq., Aberdeen ; Dr. Robert Farquharson, of Finzean,
sitting for the Western Division. The Lord Lieutenant is the Earl of .Aberdeen. The county of Aberdeen in 1871 contained a population
of 244 603 and in 1881, 267,990, exhibiting an increase over 1871 of 23,387. The parliamentary constituency of the Eastern Division of the
county in' 1887-8, was 11,670, that of the Western Division being 9,951. The valuation of the county (exclusive of railways) was, iu 1837-8,
£881,156, and the valuation of railways, £48,728.
1— S-A-N
ABEEDEEN,
WITH THE PARISHES OF OLD MACHAK AND NIGG, AND THE
VILLAGES OF WOODSIDE AND CULTS.
ABERDEEN, the capital of the county to which it gives name, is
the chief seaport in the north of Scotland, and the fourth
Scottish town in population, industry, and wealth. It is 117 miles
n.e. from Edinburgh, and 542 from London ; and by means of itB
rail communication it possesses oasyaccess to any part of the United
Kingdom. Aberdeen is of great antiquity, and is supposed to have
been known to the Romans by the name of Devanha. It is probably
among the earliest of the burghs in Scotland found entitled to any
royal marks of distinction ; and from various circumstances
occuring in history, it is reasonable to presume that at a very early
period it was a place of some commerce. As far back as 1153, it
eeems to have been known as such to the Normans; and in Mac-
pherson's treatise on commerce it is observed that in the year 1179,
Estyn, one of the joint kings of that country, landed and pillaged the
town in the course of a piratical cruise along the British coast. In
early times Aberdeen was frequently visited by royalty; and it
appears that King William, surnamed the Lion, had an edifice for
his occasional residence here, which was situate at the lower side
of the town, near the east end of what is called the Green, and was
dignified by the title of Palace. This edifice was afterwards bestowed
on the monks of the Holy Trinity, who were about that time
introduced into Scotland. The first charter that was obtained by
Aberdeen is supposed to have originated about the year 1179, and
was granted by King William. It confirmed to the burgesses the
power of enjoying their trade of merchandise as freely, quietly, fully,
and honourably as their ancestors did in the time of David, his
grandfather ; this charter was dated at Perth, and is still preserved
in the city archives. King William afterwards granted two other
charters ; botli of these, which wore dated at Aberdeen, are still in
a good state of preservation, and have the great seal of Scotland, in
green wax, appended to each. The city received many subsequent
royal charters. The great charter was granted by Charles I. and
is dated at Oatlands, 1638; alt previous charters are by it confirmed.
This charter was subsequently ratified by Parliament. The burgh
records are the oldest of any Scottish burgh ; they begin in 1398,
and are complete to the present time, with only a short break from
1413 to 1433. The city was burned by Edward III. in 1336, but it
was soon rebuilt and extended, and called New Aberdeen. In 1497
a blockhouse was built at the harbour mouth, as a protection against
the English. During the religious struggles in the seventeenth
century between the Royalists and Covenanters, the city was
plundered by both parties. In 1715 Earl Marisehal proclaimed the
Pretender at Aberdeen, and iu 1745 the Duke of Cumberland resided
a short time in the city. Her present Majesty Queen Victoria has
visited Aberdeen on more than one occasion, and owing to her
residence at Balmoral, in the Di-eside Highlands (50 miles distant),
many of the inhabitants have heuefited by her patronage.
Aberdeen is pleasantly situated upon an eminence rising
gradually from the sea, and is an elegant and well-built town, being
called "The Granite City," on account of its native light-grey granite
being the material chieOy employed in building The new streets
are spacious and uniform, and there are many fine public buildings.
A noble street, named Union street, running to the west, is
particularly handsome. About the middle of this fine street a
magnificent granite bridge, designed by Telford ,of one arch, span-
ning one hundred and fifty feet, is thrown across a ravine through
which runs a brook called the Deuburn. The Denburn is now
arched over, and the Great North of Scotland railway runs over it
for a short distance. The Joint Railway Station (for the Great
North of Scotland, Caledonian, and Deeside railways) is a large and
prominent building in Guild street, with a segmental arched iron and
glass roof. The exterior has a fine appearance, and the whole is well
and substantially built. It was designed by Mr. Smith, the city
architect. The modern part of the town has been all built within the
last Bixty years, and is of very considerable extent. Besides Union
Btreet, there are three other fine streets, namely, King street, Market
street, and George street, and for some time past the city has been
extending in every direction, particularly to the west and north-
west, and many suburban villas recently erected are noticeable for
their picturesque and effective treatment of the native granite. In
Castle street stands a highly-finished statue of George, the fifth and
last Duke of Gordon, erected by the gentlemen of the county. It is
executed in granite, and represents his grace iu a martial cloak, with
head uncovered, one foot placed upon a cannou, and both haudB
resting on a sword. The pedestal is a square slab of granite, and the
height of the whole is about twenty feet. At the corner of Union
terrace, uear Union Street bridge, is a bronze Btatue of the late
Prince Consort, by Marochetti, placed on a pedestal of polished
Peterhead granite. Further along Union terrace, and in an angle
formed by its junction with the Rosemouut viaduct, stands a colossal
statue of Wallace, in bronze, by W. G. Stevenson, a.r.s.a. It
is sixteen feet iu height (the largest iu Scotland), and was erected by
means of a bequest (£3,000) left by Mr. John Steel), of Edinburgh.
It was unveiled on the 29th of June of the present (1888) year by the
Marquis of Lome, who on the occasion was presented with the free-
dom of the city. A bronze statue of General Gordon (" The Hero of
Khartoum'1), executed by the late T. Stuart Burnett, a.r.s.a., and
cast in Sir John Steell's foundry, Edinburgh, stands in the square in
Schoolhill, in front of Robert Gordon's College. The monument,
which was subscribed for pricipally by members of the clan Gordon,
stands nine feet six Inches iu height, and is placed on a granite
pedestal nine feet high. It was unveiled by the Marquis of lluntly,
us head of the clan, on the 16th Jnne, 18S8. A fine statue of the
Queen in white marble, on a polished Peterhead granite pedestal, used
to stand in Union street, immediately opposite Market street, but,
getting impaired by the weather, was removed to the corridor of tlie
Town House. It is an excellent likeness, and was executed by the
late Alexander Brodie, of Aberdeen. In the Town House is a marble
statue of Provost James Blaiaie, by Sir John Steell; also a bust at
John Phillip, the painter (an Aberdonian), by bis friend and fellow-
townsman, the late William Brodie, r.s.a.
The new Municipal and County Buildings and Court House are
situated in Castle street and Union street, and form a most
imposing and magnificent structure. They comprise all the offices
required for municipal purposes, also a noble ball and Court House.
The entrance to the municipal portion is by the door in the base of
the tower facing Union buildings. A broad circular stone staircase
of easy ascent leads to the Council Chamber, the rooms set apart
for the offieiflls, and other apartments. On reaching the first
landing, a lobby to the left leads to the CouucilChamber, possessing
a fine oak roof with the armourial bearings of eminent Aberdonians,
&c; on the walls are hung several valuable paintings, including
one of Prince Albert, by John Phillip, portraits of ex-Provosts, by
Pickersgill, r.a. and George Roid, U.S.A., and other works of art. The
Committee room is entered from the same lobby, and is a square
apartment, larger in proportion to itB use than the Conncil Chamber.
Above the mantel piece is a mirror in a panel of carved oak, with the
arms of the town on the top, which stood in the old Council Chamber.
The Provost's room is a commodions apartment, looking into Broad
street. The Town Clerk's room has much the appearance of an
advocate's office, as has also that of his assistants, which contain a
number of old trophies of the city, not altogether devoid of interest.
In the upper floor are the apartments of the Town House keeper, and
a number of rooms for general purposes. There are to be seen in the
huilding an ancient coat of mail, said to have been worn by Robert
Davidson, Provost of the city, at the battle of Harlaw : also the axe
of the machine known as " The Maiden, ' which was used towards
the close of the sixteenth century for the decapitation of criminals.
The Court House is situated in the centre of the nortb-east portion
of the building, and is thus removed from the noise of street traffic.
The public entrance is by the doorway in the centre of the building
in Castle street. The entrance ball is very lofty, and has a groined
freestone roof and elaborately carved gorbal terminations. The
staircase leads by an easy flight to the main corridor, or Court Hull,
and then divides into two side flights which lead up to the joint
Town and County Hall, which is situated in the centre of the
building facing Castle street. This hall is of large Bize, and is
frequently used for fashionable assemblies, art exhibitions, and the
like. On the walls are hung several portraits, among which may be
mentioned those of Queen Victoria, Qu*>en Anne, the Premier Earl
of Aberdeen, and George, last Duke of Gordon. At its east end is
the ordinary County Hall (for the meeting of Commissioners of
Supply, Ac), almost identical in size and position with the Council
Chamber, and decorated in a novel style from a design by Mr. Clyno,
a local architect. The ceiling of the staircase, which measures about
85 feet square, is panelled with pitch pine. Light in admitted by
three lofty windows on eacli side. The Court-room is situated on
the east side of the main corridor, which is connected with the first
landing. The room is 51 feet in length by 39 feet in breadth, aud 33
feet in height. At the west end iB a small gallery, access to which is
had by two narrow staircases entering from the corridor. The
accommodation provided for the public seats about 800 individuals.
The whole room has been finished iu a most artistic manner, aud
presents a pleasing appearance to the eye. Access may be had by
Beveu different entrances. On the left of the corridor on entering is
a staircase which leads up to a suite of rooms set apart for the
procurators fiscal and their clerks, a small Court-room for the trial
of summary cases, hearing proofs, examining bankrupts, Ac. At
the end of the corridor is a passage leading to the Advocates'
buildings. A passage to the right leads to the corridor of the east-
ward entrance to the building, immediately under the old tolbooih
tower built during the first quarter of the 17th century.
The latest additions to the architecture of Union street are the
large aew block of buildings for the Free Press offices and the new
SLATER'S DIRECTORY
ABERDEEN
ABERDEENSHIRE
branch office for the Commercial Bank. The Free Press Building
is situated on the north side of the street near the Municipal
Buildings, the frout looking south, and is isolated on the east and
west sides from the adjoining buildings in tnc street ; it extends
backwards to the Nether Kirkgate, being, iu fact, exposed all round.
The haudsomo front is designed after the classical Renaissance
style, aud the accessories are richly emphasised in moulded aud
carved work of the most advanced artificers' craftmanship, aud
executed in the beautiful, sparkling, and delicately tinted grey
granite of the Aberdeen quarries. The principal doorway, with its
elaborately worked festooned trusses supporting the rich massive
door cap and balustrade above ; the window enrichments and caps;
aud the boldly-cut main cornice with tryglyphs aud ornamental
plaques, &0. form the most noticeable features of interest aud
finish. The architects are Messrs. Ellis & Wilson, of Aberdeen.
The new bank, on the same side of Union street, and near the
houBe forming the south-west coruerof St. Nicholas street, is chiefly
noticeable for its novelty in design, being or a late domestic type of
pointed architecture, showing mullioued windows aud heads filled
iu with flowing tracery, the crowning feature consisting of a steeply
pointed stepped gable aud pinnacles raised above the masonry of the
rest of the houses near by. The masonry of the front is built of
narrow flat courses of granite, the dressings being in light granite,
and the filling in of the warm pink tinted Corennie granite; the
front only is exposed.. The architect is Mr. Sydney Mitchell, of
Edinburgh.
The Post Office is at the foot of Market street, and was erected in
1876 to take the place of the old one erected in 1845, which, since the
transfer of the telegraphs, had been found far too limited for the
despatch of the business, now rapidly expanding year by year. It
is a handsome building of white Kern nay granite, and Consists of n
basement, partly underground, and two storeys above the street level.
The two principal elevations, facing Market street and Trinity quay,
are designed in ihe Reuaissancestyle. The chief elevation, lrouting
Market street, is rounded olf at the two extreme comers, which
contain doorways with carved consoles and moulded cornices ; and
the centre division, containing the chief entrance, projects slightly
in advance of the remaining portion. The architect for the building
was Mr. K. Matheson, aud the contractors Messrs. Coutts & Sons, of
Aberdeen.
The Music Hall Buildings, in the west of Union street, are the
property of the Aberdeen Music Hall Company, Limited. This
elegant edifice (which formerly constituted the County Buildings) is
decorated with a portico of six columns of the Ionic order, thirty
feet in height. The principal entrance, under the portico, leads
into an outer vestibule, having a flight of six steps conducting to the
inner vestibule, which is sixty feet in length and twenty feet in breadth,
and is divided into three compartments by fluted Ionic columns,
with ornamented capitals and corresponding pilasters. The centre
part is thirty-two feet high, and the ceiling is a dome, finished with
coffering. In the middle of the building, and opening into the ball
room, through a screen of columns, is a spacious corridor or pro-
menade, seventy feet in length, finished with pilasters, and an
arched and panelled ceiling. It communicates on the one side
with the ball room, and on the other with what used to be the
supper or refreshment room, and the card saloon, but are now known
as the Square Room and Round Room, and are generally used for
meetings, lectures, aud the like. Beyond all these rooms is a
capacious Music Hall, built by the Company, and opened 14th
September, 1859, by the late Prince Consort, who then delivered in
it his thoughtful address as president of the British Association.
The Hall is furnished with au admirable organ, is well decorated,
and is capable of seating about 3,000 people.
The Corn Exchange, in Madden street, erected in 1854, is the
property of a joint-stock company; the cost of erection was about
£1,000, It is chiefly used as a public news room; it is furnished
with the lending newspapers and magazines of the kingdom, and
supplied with telegraphic intelligence, and altogether is one of the
best equipped rooms of the kind in the country, the charge of
admission being only a penny. The Masonic Hall is iu Exchange
street; the foundation stone was laid on the 27th of September,
1871. The building contains on the ground flour three shops, the
remainder being used exclusively by tho Masonic Lodges in Aber-
deen (of which there aro ten), and embraces a hall 50 feet by 32 fe^t,
aud 20 feet high, with a gallery at one end. The hall has three lofty
windows to Stirling street, filled with stained glass. The building
was designed by Mr. James Matthews ; the cost was £2,500, which
was defrayed by shares of £1 each. The Market Cross, neai the
eastern extremity of Castle street, cannot be too highly admired,
whether as an architectural object or as an antiquariau
curiosity. It is of hexagonal form, with a pillar rising from the
centre. In a cornice around tho upper part of the structure are
twelve compartments for figures, cut iu relief ; ten of these contain
the portraits of Scotch monarch?, the last of the Beries being
James VII., iu whose time (1686) the edifice was completed. This
fine erection stood originally at the west end of the square in the
centre of a raised pavement called the Plainstanes. This pavement
was removed, however, in 1842, and the Cross was then placed in its
present position. Tho Market House, known as the New Market,
stands in Market street, aud is one of the largest and most beautiful
buildings of its kind in the kingdom ; it was erected by a joint-
stock company, and opened in 1812. It was destroyed by flro in 1882,
but has since been re-erected on ttie old lines, with some alterations
and improvements. It contaius two floors and a continuous gallery
all round the building. In the west end of the market is a beautiful
fountain of polished Peterhead granite. The theatre is situated in
Guild street, adjoining the Imperial Hotel. It is 74 feet 8 inches in
length, with a mean depth of 9C feet, and the height of the front is
50 feet from the street. The entrance doors for tlio public are five
in number, all to the front. Commodious refreshment, retiring, and
cloak rooms are provided for visitors. The theatre is seated for
1,670 persons. The stage and all its appliances are of the most
approved modern description. St. Katharine's Hall, Shiprow, has
accommodation for seatiugSOO persons, and contains various other
rooms which are neatly and substantially furnished ; added to these
is a refreshment bar aud dining rooms, with billiards and chess,
lavatory, &c. The Barracks, on the Castle hill, are fitted up for the
convenience of six hundred men, although, according to the usual
mode of military accommodation, they are capable of containing
double this number ; there is an excellent hospital attached to them
on au adjoining eminence. The town is admirably paved with
granite, well lighted with gas, and plentifully supplied with excellent
water, taken from the Dee at Cairnton, about 21 miles above the
city. The arrangements for cleansing the streets and watching the
city are fully efficient.
The port of Aberdeen is admirably adapted for commercial inter-
course with the northern parts of Europe, and it also participates iu
a good share of the trade with America. Early in the seveuteenth
century, a number of ships, of small tonnage, belonged to the port,
and a considerable import aud export trade was carried on with
various parts of the contiuent, as well as coast trading. The ship-
ping appears to have* considerably decayed during the civil wars
and visitations of tho plague, and no revival took place for many
years. In 1U56 there were only nine vessels, of the aggregate amount
of 440 tons. Iu 1692 all the shipping was two galliotts of thirty tons
each. Soon after this time, however, when the affairs of the country
got iuto a more settled state, shipping, along with general trade,
made u considerable progress. In 1788 tho number of ships registered
was 169, and the aggregate tonnage, 11,820; in 1818, the ships regis-
tered were237 ; tonuago, 86,471 ; iu 1872, 286 vessels ; tonnage, 101,188.
Tho number of vessels, including steamers, registered in the port
of Aberdeen in 1881 was 200; tonnage, 109,471. The total number of
vessels entered aud cleared for British ports in the year 1881 was
8,020; tonnage 705, 660, Of these 1,881 were Bteamers, with a tonnage
of 511,678; 1,189 sailing vessels, with a tonnage of 193,982. From
foreign ports there entered 267 vessels; tonnage, 77,325. Of these
152 were foreign vessels, with a tonnage of 38,996 ; 114 were British
vessels, with a tonnage of 38,329. Thirty of the total foreign entries
were steamers, with a tonnage of 12,016; 237 were sailing vessels,
with a tonnage of 65,309. There sailed for foreign ports during the
year 81 vessels; tonnage, 12,291. The vessels on the Aberdeen register
iu 1884 numbered 193, with a tonnage of 105,321. Thenuniberof
vessels, including steamers, registered at the port in 1887 was 182 ;
tonnage 110,102. The total harbour revenue for the year ending 30th
September, 1881, was £59,320; the portion derived from the shipping
aud goods, £41,195; while the local salmon fishings(nowthe property
of tho harbour commissioners) yielded £5,706. For the year ending
80th September, 1884, tho harbour revenue amounted to £59,140, the
salmon fishings yielding £5,831. The customs revenue for 1887
amounted to £186,008 7s lid. Since the year 1810, when tho prin-
cipal improvement in tho harbour commenced, there have been
expended upou it vast sums. A pier was constructed to the north
of the harbnur entrance (formed by the river Dee joining the sea),
and uow extends 2,500 feet seaward. A wet dock of 29 acres, and
with 6,000 feet of quays, was completed in 1848, and called Victoria
Dock, in honour of Her Majesty's visit to the city in that year. Tho
diversion of the riveraud the newsouth breakwater were later under-
takings. The first turf cut iu the diversion of fie river was by Lord
Provost Leslie, on the 22nd of December, 1869. The new course is
about a mile in length, and forms a large arc of a circle, from the
suspension bridge to about opposite Marischal street, and from that
point to Torry, where it joius the harbour entrance. The bottom of
the new cbauuel is 170 feet wide. The north bank has a gradient of
1 in 3, and the south bank 1 iu 10. The new breakwater, the mtire
lougth of which is 1,050 feet, is carried out to a depth of water of 50 feet
at high tide. Two new quays have since been constructed, named
respectively after two provosts — Mr. George Jamieson and Mr. James
Matthews ; and anew and spacious graving dock was opened in June,
1885. It is situated in what was the old bed of the river Dee, now
known as the Albert basin. The length of the floor is 500 feet ; the
total length of the dock being 524 feet. It is 48 feet wide at the floor,
the width gradually widening till it reaches 74 feet at the cope ; the
depth on the sill is 20 feet. The graving dock is furnished with
hydraulic machinery of the latest aud most approved type ; its total
cost was about £50,u00. A handsome harbour office, surmounted by
a clock tower, for the accommodation of harbour officials, engineers,
&c, was erected about the Biime time on Regent quay, from a design
by Messrs. Matthews and Mackenzie, architects, Aberdeen. The
fame of the " clipper bow " so justly due to the shipbuilders here,
especially to the late Mr. William Hall, who successfully established his
claim to the invention, has spread the fame of Aberdeen shipbuild-
ing to all quarters of the world. In 18*1 there were built 10 vessels,
aggregate tonnage, 9,837 — two sailing vessels and eight steamers;
and at the commencement of 1882 nine vessels were on hand — three
sailing vessels and six steamers with a total tonnage of 11,290. In
1883 there were launched 16 vessels, with a total tonnage of 11,628 ;
while there were seven vessels on hand, with a gross tonnage of
8,080. Tho salmon fishings on the Dee aud Don are, as they have
for a long time been, an important branch of industry.
Aberdeen lias beon tho seat of manufactures from a very early
period. We find Provost Alexander J affray, with his co-adjutors,
establishing a woollen manufactory in 1686, iu tho Correction wynd,
under a patent of Charles I. for the manufactuie of " broad cloth,
kerseys, serges and other coarse cloths." The manufacture of these
aud of stockings hail been cultivated so successfully and extensively
for some time, that Sir Patrick Drummond conservator of Holland,
remarked that " Scotland was more obliged to the town of Aberdeen
for returns of money on its export trade than all other towns in
Seotland." Messrs. Alexander Haddeu & Sons, have three establish-
ments— in the Green, at Garlogio Mills, and at Gordon's Mills. Their
chief products aro carpets, tweeds, hosiery, worsted, and woollen
yarns. In addition to tho material manufactured on their premises,
they give employment to a greatnumber of women over the country
by giving nut worsted to be knitted into hose. Messrs. Crombie, of
Grandholm Mills, are also large manufacturers. The manufacture
of winceys seems to have originated with the late firm of Messrs.
John Barker & Sous, of Gordon's Mills. It is now successfully carried
on by many firms in Aberdeen. The demand still continues to
expand, the quality of the Aberdeen fabrics being found very
superior. Jute spinning is also carried on by a limited liability com-
pany. The only cottou spinning establishment now in Aberdeen is that
of Banner Mill, belonging to Messrs. Robinson, Crura & Co. Limited.
The manufacture of combs was introduced about the year 1830, by
Messrs. Stewart & Rowell, and has been conducted on a very extensive
scale since that period, first by the original firm, and latterly by Mr
Stewart and his sons. It is also carried, on by Messrs. John
s

M'Pherson & Co. and Messrs. C.Elrick & Go. Limited. Messrs. John
Moir & Son; Marshall & Co. Spring garden; J.T. Morton, Rosemount ;
Gordon & Son, Green ; and W. Bruce, Prince Regent street, among
other firms, are engaged in the manufacture of preserved provisions.
All manner of fish, flesh, soups, vegetables, fruits, &c, are preserved
in tiu cases of all sizes, and every variety of preparation. Messrs.
Mitchell & Muil, Limited, biscuit manufacturers to the Queen, have
an extensiv* manufactory here. The extensive paper- works at Stoney-
wood, carried on by Messrs. Alex. Pirie & Sons, Limited, were
established nearly one hundred years ago, and they are the largest
manufacturers in Scotland. Messrs. C. Davidson & Sou, Limited,
manufacture very extensively wrapping and packing papers of all
kinds ; they have also a patent for making paner bags, in which they
do a considerable trade. There is also a large paper mill at Cnlter,
belonging to a limited liability company. There are several large hor-
ticultural builders in Aberdeen. Among the most prominent may be
mentioned Messrs. J. Garvie & Sons, and D. Macandrew & Co.; the
former have erected hot-houses for Her Majesty at Balmoral. The
chemical works at Sandilands, near the Links, cover several acres of
ground, aud were begun by Messrs. John Miller & Co. in 1848, for the
purpose of working up the Gas Company'sliquid products into naph-
tha, creosote oil, asphalte, sulphate of ammonia, &c. But several
branches have been added since, the most important of which are
the manufacture of artificial manures, paraffin wax, sulphuric acid,
&c. The distillation of whiskyis carried on extensively in Aberdeen
by the representatives of John Begg, of the famed Lochnagar Dis-
tillery ; Mes-irs. Henry Ogg & Co. of the Strathdee Distillery ; and the
Bon-Accord Distillery Co. Limited, &c.
The granite trade may be said to be indigenous to Aberdeen.
The greater part of the county, and portions of the adjoining dis-
tricts, are composed of igneous rock of all varieties, the quarrying
of which commenced about 250 years ago, but made little progress
till the year 1741, when a disastrous tire occurring in Aberdeen,
destroyed a large number of the wooden houses of which the town
was chiefly composed. An act of the magistrates and council was
then passed ordaining the outside walls of dwelling houses to be
built of stone or brick. About 1764 the streets of London began to
be paved with Aberdeen granite ; but it was not till 1795 that larger
blockB were required, and machiery began to be applied. Rubislaw
Quarries then supplied stones for the Government docks; and
Dancing Cairn, which began to be wrought about this time, sup-
plied granite for the Union Bridge, and the new street extension of
the city. Subsequently the demand has considerably increased,
as granite is used extensively in the construction of bridges,
docks, and other public works. The dockyards of Portsmouth and
Sheerness, the docks of many ports along the east coast including
those of Newcastle, Hull and Leith, as well as London Bridge, were
all formed of Aberdeen granite, and the piers of the Forth Bridge
were also made of granite from tho quarries belonging to Mr. John
Fyfe. There are over 20 quarries iu operation in the district,
yielding granite of various colour aud quality. The quantity of
stone quarried annually is about 55,000 tons, 40,000 of which is
exported chiefly from this port. The trade is estimated to be in-
creasing at the rate of about 500 tons annually. The facilities
afforded by the railways in lessening the expense of carriage from
the various quarries have tended to increase the demaud. Granite
polishing has now acquired large dimensions here, and it was cal-
culated that last year (1887) the value of the output in polished
granite sent to America alone was about £43,000. About fifty years
ago the late Mr. Macdonald was the first to apply machinery to the
cutting and polishing of granite. The firm of Messrs. Macdonald,
Field & Co. (now Alexander Macdonald & Co. Limited), had the
honour to supply the enormous granite sarcophagus (30 tons
wejght), now containing the remains of his late Royal Highness the
Prince Consort, iu the royal mausoleum at Frogmore, besides a
smaller one for her late Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent. The
same firm also manufactured the massive granite sarcophagus in
which the remains of Napoleon III. are entombed, and which was
presented to the Empress Eugenie by Her Majesty the Queen, aud
last year a similar tomb also by Messrs. Macdonald & Co. waB made
to the order of the Empress Eugenie for the remains of the late
Prince Imperial. Messrs. William Keith, jun. King street; James
Hunter & Son, King street ; and numerons other firms do considerable
business. The process of all their operations is by steam machinery.
Remarkable advances have been made recently in the various
mechanical operations. "Witliin the last two years the use of Band
for smoothing the surface of the granite, a system that has been in
general use from the commencement of the industry, has been
almost entirely discontinued and the use of chilled shot adopted
instead. In the splitting of the large blocks, also, a method of saw-
ing has latterly been introduced which entails a large saving in
labour as well as in material. From 10,000 to 12.000 tons of granite
are used annually for polishing purposes at the various works in
Aberdeen, consisting not only of the native local rock, but also of
granites from the West of Scotland, from Ireland, and from various
parts of Germany and Sweden. The demand for polished granite
increases every year, and orders for architectural, general, and
monumental purposes are sent from all parts of the world to the
Granite City.
There are three joint stock companies for the manufacture and
sale of agricultural materials— the Commercial, the Lime, and the
Northern Agricultural— each of them having steam mills for pulver-
ising bones. The latter, in addition, carries on the manufacture of
oilcake, linseed oil, rape oil, &c. Messrs. Ben Reid & Co. have a
large establishment for the manufacture of agricultural implements.
Messrs. Harper & Co. carry on an extensive business iu the
manufacture of agricultural implements and machinery and wire
weaving, especially the construction of wire suspension bridges.
There are also brick and tile manufacturing companies, several
soap and candle manufactories, coach builders, and many other
largo establishments, of which our Bpace prevents ub from giving
details, located here. The iron and metal works employ a lar^e
number of skilled workmen. There are several engineering estab-
lishments and foundries, with other works connected with shipping,
sail and rope works, boiler making, &c, &c. Apart from the
import of foreign timber, there is a large business carried on in
home-grown wood, from the upper districts of Aberdeenshire.
Deeside fir has been a staple article in Aberdeen from time imme-
morial.
The earliest banking company formed in Aberdeen was started
in 1752. It was begun on a scale which mast now be regarded as
limited, even for the comparatively moderate requirements of that
period, and it was not long ere the scheme was relinquished. In
176(3 the " Aberdeen Banking Company "' was originated, and long
enjoyed almost a monopoly of the banking business of the north.
About thirty years ago it was merged in the " Union Bank of
Scotland," sinking its individual title. It still maintains a good
connection, and continues to do considerable business, both in the
town aud over the northern district. Besides representatives of
most of the Edinburgh and Glasgow banks, there are in Aberdeen
two thriving native banks — tho Town and County Bank, Limited,
established in 1825, having fifty-live branches, and the North of
Scotland Bank, Limited, established in 18::G, with sixty-four branches.
By each of these two establishments (which are both incorporated
by Act of Parliament) an extensive business is curried on at their
head and branch offices in the city, and through their numerous
agencies iu the principal towns and villages in the northern counties,
as well as in several counties' south of Aberdeen. The banking
houses in Aberdeen are, rin the whole, elegant structures. That of
the Town and County Bunk occupies an excellent position in the
angle formed by the junction of St. Nicholas street with the line of
Union street. The North of Scotland Bank occupies a similar
position in the corner where the western side of King street joins
Castle street. The National Security Savings Bank has been long
in operation, and is well patronised by the special class of
depositors for which it is intended. Aberdeen is the head station
of two highly respectable insurance companies, namely, the Scottish
Provincial, established in 1825. and the Northern, established in 1836.
Tho Northern Assurance Company's new offices, erected iu 1885,
at a cost of £20,000, situated in Union street, at the corner of Union
terrace, occupy one of the most prominent sites in the city, and are
built entirely of light grey granite in the Italian Renaissance style
of architecture, having a frontage to Union terrace of 110 feet, and
to Union Btreet of 64 feet. The floors are fire-proof, the interior
of the public office being largely decorated with polished granite, in
the form of columns, pilasters, wall panels, &c. A striking feature is
the largeness of the blocks used in the construction of the building,
there being thirty columns, each 18 feet high and 2 wide, the
effect of which is to give tho building a massive and dignified
appearance. The architects were Messrs. Matthews and Mackenzie,
of Aberdeen.
Regular communication is maintained with London, Edinburgh,
Liverpool, Newcastle, Hull, Glasgow, the Moray Firth, and the
Orkneys and the Shetlands, by steam packets, a species of convey-
ance which has done more to lay open the north-east shore of
Scotland to improvements from the south than any other means.
In addition to the above, there exist the means of rapid transit by
the Caledonian Railway and other lines to all parts south of Aber-
deen ; and access is given to the north by the Great North of
Scotland and the Highland Railways to Wick and Thurso, and the
Dingwall and Skye railway to Strome Ferry, in Ross-shire. The
Deeside line to Banchory was opened in 1853, and is now extended
to BaHater, coaches running in connection with tho trains past the
Royal residences of Abergeldio and Balmoral to Braemar, Of other
conveyances the Directory furnishes full information.
There are several first-class hotelB in the city, among which may
be mentioned the Imperial, situated in a retired situation in
Stirling street, adjacent to the Railway station ; it is a neat building
in the Venetian-Gothic style of architecture, and internally fitted
with all modern requirements essential to a first-class hotel, no
expense being spared to render it in all respects equal to any other
of the same character. The Palace Hotel, adjoining Union bridge,
is most centrally and conveniently situated, aud from its elevated
and open position commands a tine view of Union street, the chief
thoroughfare of the city, and is near the railway station. It is a
handsome and commodious building, and one of thelargest and best
appointed hotels iu Scotland. The Douglas in Market street, and
Forsyth's in Union Btreet, are also first-claBS hotels. There are
beBides many excellent inns, which afford accommodation to various
grades of travellers.
The burghal constitution of Aberdeen has undergone various
alterations since its first establishment. The original magistracy
consisted of an alderman, four bailies, aud a common council, chosen
by the Merchant Guild; subsequently this arrangement gave way
before the gradual and perfect introduction of a self-electing system.
From the year 1817 until 1825 tho city revenues were gathered by and
dispensed under the control uf trustrees. Tho credit of tho burgh
may now be considered as good as that of any in the kingdom. The
council now consists of a provost, six bailies, a deau of guild, a
treasurer, a master of shore works, a master of kirk aud bridge
works, a master of mortification, a master of Guild Brethren
Hospital, and twelve councillors. By the " Aberdeen Municipal
Extension Act, 1871," the whole powers and authorities of the
formal Commissioners of Police were transferred to the Town
Council, and the business of the Police Department is managed by
separate committees. By the same Act the undertaking of the
former Gas Light Company was also transferred to the Town
Council. The boundaries of the municipality were largely extended
in 1883, and legislative sanction given to a large scheme of civic
improvements, including the formation of an access to the Rose-
mount suburb. The circuit court of justiciary for the counties of
Aberdeen, Banff and Kincardine is held in Aberdeen. A sheriff's
court is held every Wednesday and Friday; and the small debt
court on Thursday, during the legal sessions. The c;ty returns two
members to Parliament, one for the Northern and the other for the
Southern Division ; the present representatives are— William A.
Hunter. Esq., ll.d., barrister. London, Northern Division, aud James
Bryce, Esq., professor of civil law at Oxford, Southern Division.
The parliamentary constituency for 1887-8 is— Northern Division,
8,350; Southern Division, 7,874. Aberdeen confers the title of earl
on a branch of the noble family of Gordon, which was distinguished
for its active loyalty to the crown in the seventeenth century.
There are seven incorporated trades :— 1, the Hammermen, in-
corporated September, 1519; 2, the Bakers, recognised as a company
DIRECTORY
ABERDEEN
ABERDEENSHIRE
as early as the year 1398 ; S, the Wrights and Coopers, who obtained
their original seal oi cause on the 5th of August, 1527 ; 4, the Tailors,
who were recognised iu a corporate capacity about the year 1511 ;
5, the Shoemakers, acknowledged as a corporate body in the years
1484 and 1520 ; 6, the Weavers, the deacons of this corporation were
approved by the council and sworn into office in the year 1449 ; and
7, the Flesbers or Butchers ; those originally dealt in fish as well as
flesh, but were prohibited iu the year 1518 from practising more
trades than one ; they received a seal of cause in 1584. The several
incorporations hold their meetings in the Trades' Hall, in Uniou
street, at the soutb-ea?t corner of Union bridge, a building of rather
florid architecture, erected in 184G-7, from designs by the late Mr.
John Smith, architect. The affairs of each corporation are under
the direction of a deacon ami box- master, who are chosen
annually, a convener, master of hospital, and copvener court
governing the joint affairs of the seven corporations. The Rev. Dr.
William Guild, one of the town's ministers, and afterwards Principal
of King's College, founded in 1632 a Trades' Hospital for the benefit
of indigent brethren, assigning to the incorporation for that purpose
the monastry and other property that formally belonged" to the
monks of the Holy Trinity. The Advocates' Hall is in Broad street,
in proximity to and connected with the Court House Buildings.
The Society of Advocates (as the local legal practitioners are called)
was elected into a corporate body iu 1774, and had their privileges
confirmed in more ample terms in 1799 and in 18B2. A library,
principally on law subjects, was established in 178G ; it contains
about five thousand volumes. The nnmberof members belonging to
this institution is about 150. Among several clubs formed in this city,
the " Royal Northern Club" and the "New Club" are the principal.
The Public Libraries Acts were adopted in April, 1884, and as a
result thereof a reading room was opened to the public in the
autumn of 1885, well provided with newspapers, magazines of all
kinds, and a selection of books of reference. This department of
the library is now located in a hall hired for' the purpose at 38
Market street, and is daily resorted to by about 1,500 persons. A
lending library was opened to the public in March, 1886, in the hall
formerly known as the Mechanics' Hall, Market street. During the
year and a half ending 30th September, 1887, there were 346,431
issues of books to the public. The stock of the lending library
amounts to about 19.0C0 volumes of all kinds of literature,
and there is in addition the nucleus of a reference library.
A Museum and Art Gallery, raised by public subscription, was a few
years ago erected in Schoolhill, on the grounds in front of Robert
Gordon's College. It is a handsome building, of thu Italian
Renaissance order, and being largely constructed of light-red and
dark-brown granite, presents a novel and striking appearance. It
was designed by Messrs. Matthews and Mackenzie, architects; as
was also an adjoining and symmetrical building, intended for an
Art Sciiool, erected at a cost of £5,000, by Councillor John Gray,
and gifted by him to the town. Both buildings are united by a uoble
archway. A nucleus for the Art Gallery has been formed by the
bequest of a magnificent collection by the late Mr. Alexander
Macdouald, of Kepplestone. The various institutions of a charitable,
social, educational and humane character, are numerous and well
supported. A list of them will be found under the head " Public
Buildings, &e." Two daily morning newspapers, two daily evening,
two weekly, two woekly satirical papers, and a bi-weekly advertiser
are issued from the Aberdeen press — their titles and otherparticnlars
are given in their place. The first almanac ever printed in Scotland
was published in Aberdeen, in 1623, by Edward Raban, the year
after setting up the first printing press in the North. It was
entitled " A New Prognostication for the Year of our Lord God,
1623, being the third after Leape Year, serving moat fitlie for the
Kingdom of Scotland, and all the partes of North Britain, &c.'* The
almanac seems for a long time to have been looked upon as a
property of the Aberdeen printers, for a successor of Raban's, named
John Forbes, issued one entitled " A New Prognosticates calculated
for North Britain." He sold fifty thousand copies annually, and the
price of each was only a plack, or the third part of a penny sterling.
His success induced the publication of pirated editionsat Edinburgh,
which were suppressed by the Court of Session, and for many years
the town enjoyed a complete monopoly in the sale of almanacs.
Prominent among the ecclesiastical edifices of the city are the
East and West churches. These form one building, and occupy
the site of the ancient parish church of St. Nicholas, which consisted
of nave and aisles, transept and chancel, and was built progressively
probably between the 11th and 13th centuries. The present West
church occupies the site of the old nave, and was erected in 1755,
from a design by the celebrated architect Gibbs, who was a native
of Aberdeen. It is iu the Roman style, with nave and side aisles,
divided by massive square piers and semi-circular arches, and has ft
finely proportioned interior. It contains sittings for about 1,450.
There are several monuments in it worthy of attention, particular!
one in marble to the memory of the late Mrs. Allardyce.of Dunottar,
whicli is a splendid specimen of theskill of the sculptor Bacon. The
large west window has been fittediu with stained glass. The old East
church, which it was deemed necessary to take down in 1835, was built
in 1447, partly on the site of the chancel, and formed the choir of the
church. The east end was semi-octagonal, and under it was St.
Mary's chapel, which still remains. The present East church was
erected in 1836, from a design by the late Mr. Archibald Simpson,
in the docorated Gorhic style, of finely dressed granite. The old
transept, known as Drum's and Collison's aisles, was at the same time
opened up southwards, uud formed a vestibule for the East and West
churches. Over the transept at its intersection with the churches
there was a short tower, with a wooden steeple, which on the 9th
October, 1874, was destroyed by fire, along with the interior of the
East church and Drum's and Collison's aisles. The East church
has since been restored, and contains sittings for about 1.350 people.
A handsome new tower with spire of granite has also been erected,
from a design by Mr. W. Smith, architect, Aberdeen ; the spire rises
to the height of about 195 feet from the ground. The old Norman
arches and piers under the tower were taken down and rebuilt in
their original form with the old stones. St. Clement's, oi
Footdee, church, has a tower forty-five feet high, with a clock
presented by thr) magistrates. Greyfriars, or College church, which
stands on the east of Broad street, near Marischal College, is said to
have been erected by Bishop Dunbar, for the Grey Friars, about the
beginning of the sixteenth century, and is now the only chnrch in
the town where the Roman Catholic worship was performed
previous to the Reformation. The South church is situated in
Belmont street, and is calculated to accommodate 1,450 persons. It
is in the Gothic style, and is distinguished by a handsome square
tower, which forms a striking object in tho approach from the
south. The North church, in King street, is an edifice in the
Grecian style, executed in finely dressed granite, from a design by
the late Mr. John Smith, architect, and contains sittings for about
1,450. Old Machar church, at the north extremity of Old Aberdeen,
in the parish of Old Machar, consists of the nave of a cathedral
founded by Bishop Alexander Kyninmunde II., about the middle of
the fourteenth century. The ceiling is of the finest oak, of curious
workmanship, and may vie with anything of the kind in Scotland.
It consists of three compartments of square panels, joining at the
opposite angular points. On these panels are painted the arms and
titles of the princes, nobles, and prelates who contributed towards
the expenses of the building. Along the top of the walls on the
south side are inscribed tho names of the successive sovereigns from
Malcolm II. to Queen Mary. On the north side are the names of the
several bishops, from Nectanua to William Gordon, the last Roman
Catholic prelate. All these inscriptions, as well as those on the roof,
are painted in the old black Saxon character. Several of the
windows have, of late years, been filled in with stained glass;
conspicuous amongst these is an " Artists' Window," to the memory
of Jameson, Dyce, and Phillip, all Aberdonians. St. Paul's chapel
was erected for the accommodation of such Episcopalians aa
refused to submit to the jurisdiction of the Scotch bishops-
It contained sittings for 1,000 oersons, but has been superseded by
a very handsome new church. The other English Episcopalian
chapel is St. Jamei's, a small hut striking building in red Corrennie
granite, at tho corner of Union street and Holburn street. St.
Andrew's, or Scotch Episcopalian chapel, iB a neat edifice built in 1813.
It occupies a site on the east side of King street; the gable or end
fronts the street, presenting a centre and aside aisle, the corners of
which are ornamented with lofty octagonal turrets, those on each
si do of the entrance being upwards of eighty feet in height. The
turrets are finished with panelling and richly crocketed pinnacles.
The entrance gate is embellished with clustered columns and
crocketed mouldings, and the windows are finished with tracery in a
corresponding style. The interior presents a simple style of Gothic
architecture, corresponding with the front entrance. At tho west end
is a large and fine-to»ed organ, underneath which is a hand-
some Btatue of the late Bishop Skinner, by Flaxmah. The building
has been enlarged and much improved of late years, a chancel having
been added, from a design by the late Mr. G. E. Street, r.a.
Iu 1885 au elegant reredos was placed in the church, to the
memory of the late Bishop Suther, for many years its incumbent.
St. John's chapel, in St, Mary's place, for Scotch Episcopalians, with
a small spire on the north end, will contain about 500 persons ;
the interior has undergone much alteration and repair. Another
Scotch Episcopalian chapel is St. Mary's, Carden place, the most
Anglican and Ritualistic of all in design and construction. The
Romau Catholic Cathedral of St. Mary's of the Assumption, in tho
early pointed Gothic style, in Huntly street, was consecrated on the
10th of March, 1859. Longitudinally the church is almost east and
west, with a nave, north and south aisles, north and south porches,
tower and spire, tho latter reaching to a height of 200 feet, in which
there is a peal of nine bells, the largest weighing 30 cwt. The
sanctuary, situated at the east end, forms a continuation of the nave.
On each side of the sanctuary are vestries ; and in advance of the
high altar, which is raised seven steps, are two side altars under
arched recesses, formed in the east end of the aisles. Internally the
dimensions of tho church are one hundred and fifty feet in length,
sixty-nine feet wide, and sixty-nine feet high from the floor to the
apex of the roof, and it will comfortably seat 1,600 persons. The
whole of the windows, excepting the large west ope, arc filled with
fine painted glass by Wailes, of Newcastle. The piincjpa) entrance
is from Huntly street, and above this eutrance is the large west
window, which is thirty feet high by fifteen feet in width, with
tracery and sculptured figures in the centre. On the north side is
the priests' house, and ou the south a convent, the schools running
backwards from tho convent aloug the wall of the south aisle — all
having access by a doorway to the church— the whole of which (the
arcade excepted), is built of Aberdeen granite. The cost of erection
was about £20,000, and the bells, £1,300 in addition; the architect
was Mr. Alexander Ellis. There is in connection with the church a
very handsome schoolbouse, in Constitution street, erected in 1832,
from a design by the late Mr. John Smith, architect, in which ure
educated Catholic children belonging to tlje congregation. In
addition to these places of worship, there are others belonging to
various denominations, for the names -and situations of which we
must refer our readers to a list given at a subsequent page, where
will be found also tho names of the officiating ministers.
The twi> colleges, which were united by Act of Parliament in 18fi0,
and now form the University of Aberdeen, are very anciept semin-
aries of learning— King's College in Old Aberdeen, and Marischal
College in Broad street. The former was first instituted in the year
1494, by William Elphinstone, Bishop of Aberdeen, under the
authority of a Bull of Pope Alexander VI. The original foundation
charter is still extant in the charter chest of the College. The
students wear a scarlet cloth gown, nut do not reside within the
college. Tho building forms a quadrangular court, and has boen
almost totally reconstructed of late years, spacious class robins
being erected, along with a large library, in which is a very valuable
collection cf books. The old chapel,' howover, is retained, and
possesses an antique screen of woodwork; the tomb of Bishop
Elphiustonb is in the middle of the entrance passage. Beautiful
staiued glass windows have been inserted in memory of Principal
Campbell, Professor Macpherson, and Professor Mearns ; the largo
west window was filled with a rich design in stained glass some
years ago, the expense being borne by Mr. John Webster, late M.P,
for the city. On tho south-east corner is a lofty square tower,
strengthened by buttresses and covered with a flat roof, having on
the top a parapet, over which springs from each of its corners a slip
of stonework highly ornamented; these slips meet at the top and

fmui four open arches, in imitation of an imperial crown. On the
top of this is a stone lantern, surmounted with another imperial
crown of stonework, with a globe and cross. The tower formerly
contained a peal of thirteen bells. The Senatus room is ornamented
with portraits of Bishops Elphinstone, Dunbar, &c. The erection
of the original buildings commenced about the year 1500. Mariscbal
College was founded and endowed by George Keith, Earl Mariscbal
of Scotland, in 1593, by a charter ratified by Act of Parliament. The
college buildings stand on the site of a Franciscan convent, and
were rebuilt in 1836-41, at a cost of £21,240. Of this sum Govern-
ment granted £15,000, and the balance was raised by public sub-
scription. The new college is a spacious, eb-gant and convenient
building, in the Gothic style, from a design by the late Mr. Archibald
Simpson, architect. It forms three sides of a square of one hundred
feet, and the accommodation consists of twenty-five large class
rooms and laboratories, a hall, a musenm, &c. A scheme has been
spoken of to complete the square and otherwise add to the buildings,
at a total estimated cost of £100,000.
The Grammar School is a new and handsome building at the
west end of the town. It in the old Scotch baronial style, and was
built in 1863, at a cost of about £15,000, from plans drawn by Mr.
architect. Elmbill House is an establishment of a superior descrip-
tion, in connection with and under the same management as the
Royal Asylum, and designed for the accommodation of the wealthier
class of patients. A succursal asylum is about to be established
at Glack, some twenty miles north ul Aberdeen. The Asylum for
the Blind, situated in Huntly stieet, was opened in 1843. It is
supported partly by revenue from endowments and partly by
legacies and public subscriptions. "Work is provided for blind
persons of both sexes belonging to the city of Aberdeen
and the three counties of Aberdeen, Banff and Kincardine.
The chief industries carried on are twine spinning and basket
and mattress making. From fifty to sixty blind persons are thus
employed. In_ addition, blind children and young persons are kept
in the institution, and receive education in ordinary subjects and in
industrial training. The Board of Management, as re-constituted
under the authority of the Endowment Commission, consists of
persons elected by the subscribers, or nominated either by benefactors
to the Institution, or by certain public bodies in Aberdeen or the
above mentioned counties. The Institution for the Education of
the Deaf and Dumb is in Belmont street, and is principally supported
by voluntary contributions. The average number of pupils of both

reading room are in the upper story. The school is nf very ancient four Ionic columns. It contains a library and museum, a large room
origin, the first recorded date being as far back aB 1262. There are for the meetings of the society, committee rooms, &c It was built
nearly thirty bursaries in connection with the school, for the educa- in 1818, at a cost of £2,000, from the plan of the architect of the
tion of poor scholars, and in 1634 Dr. Patrick Dunn left a bequest for , Infirmary. In the hall are some portraits, among the rest an original
the better payment of the masters. Many eminent men have
received their education here, among whom may be mentioned Lord
Byron, 1797; Sir James M'Gregor. 1784; David Wedderburn, 1602
Thomas Reid, private secretary to James VI. ; Dr. James Dunn, Dr.
James Melvin, &c.
The Free Church Divinity Hall, at the top of Union street, is a
beautiful building in the Elizabethan style of architecture, erected in
1850, at a coBt of £2,000. In this hall the Aberdeen Synod of the Free
Church bold their stated meetings. There are now a good library
and fair museum attached, both owing much to the liberality of the
late Mr. Thomson, of Banchory, near Aberdeen. Latterly, the
library haB been placed in a separate building specially designed for
the purpose.
Hobert Gordon's College, SchoolhiU,is a spacions building, stand-
ing on the ground anciently possessed by the Dominican Friars,
and having an extensive piece of ground in front. It consists of
a centre or main building and two wings. The original structure
occupies the greater part of the centre, and is three storeys in height,
having a small neat spire rising from it. The hall on the second
floor is 80 feet by 20 feet wide and 12 feet high. This building was
erected in 1789 after a design by Gibbs, and nt an expense of
£8,800. The remaining part of the centre and the wings was
completed in 1832 from a design by the late Mr. John Smith, at a
cost of about £18,000. The latter erection is in the Grecian style of
architecture, presenting a chaste and elegent appearance. The more
ancient part has been altered to correspond, and a colonnade now
traverses the building from the old house to the projecting fronts at
the ends of the wings. The ground in front, which is tastefully
laid out, much improves the appearance of the edifice. The Bum
originally bequeathed was £10,000; this was invested in land, and
at the present time the annual revenue is about £4,000. The object
of the charity was to maintain and educate the sons and grandsons
of decayed burgesses, but by a Provisional Order, obtained in 1881,
the original bequest of the founder, Robert Gordon, was set aside,
the "Hispital" system abandoned, and the iustitutiou converted
into day and evening schools, the application of its benefits being
also widely extended, the restriction to sons and grandsons of
decayed burgesses being abolished.
The Royal Infirmary, situated on Woolmanhill, is a modern erec-
tion, and consists of a central compartment and projecting wings,
the length in front being about one hundred and fifty feet, and the
breadth one hundred and twelve. The building rises to the height
of three lofty storeyB, the lowest containing the requisite offices for
the establishment, and the other floors wards aud private apart-
meuls. There is accomodation for 800 patients. One of the wings
is bo contrived that it may be used as a separate fever hospital. In
the centre of the upper part of the front is a spacious operation
room, lighted from above through a dome thirty feet in diameter.
The whole is designed in a simple style of Grecian architecture, aod
executed in dressed granite. From the elegance of the design and
the beauty of the materials, as well as the situation of the building,
it forms an ornamental feature of the city irom various points of
view, and is allowed to be a highly creditable proof of the skill of the
architect, the late Mr. Archibald Simpson, to whoso talents the city
is indebted for some of its most tasteful public buildings and private
mansions. It has been found, however, not to be in accordance
with modern hygienic ideas; and in 1887 Lord Provost Henderson
■was successful in raising an Extension Fund of about £30,000, as a
memorial of the Queen's Jubilee, to be devoted to the erection of new
wards behind the present building, the latter to be used solely for
administrative purposes. TheLunatic Asylum consists of two build-
ings, one of which was raised in 1800, the other in 1819. The
insufficiency of the old bnilding for the purposes of the iusiitntiou
rendering the erection of a more spacious and commodious one
necessary, an adjoining field of three acres was purchased, and an
elegant edifice erected according to a plan by the architect of the
Infirmary, Mr. Archibald Simpson. Since that period it has received
additions, under the superintendence of Mr. William Ramage, |
painting of Harvey by Vandyke. There are also two by James Giles,
R.A., which are both favourable specimens of the skill of this distin-
guished native artist.
The weekly niarkete. are held on Wednesday and Friday, and the
feeing markets Friday before «nd after the 26th of May, Friday
before and after 22nd November; wool markets, Thursday and
Friday of first and second week in July ; timber, the last Wednesday
in August. The population of Aberdeen, according to the returns
of 1871, amounted to 88,189-39,792 males and 48,S97 females. The
inhabited houses at the same date was 6,716. In 1881 the popul-
ation numbered 105,054—48,169 males aud 56,885 females. The
number of inhabited houses had increased in 1881 to 20,341. The
valnation of the city for 1887-8 amounted to £506,357.
Old Aberdeen stands about a mile to the north of the city, on
an emiueuce on the south bank of the river Don, in the parish of
Old Machar, of which it is the capital. Formerly this town was
tbe seat of the Bishop of Aberdeen, but it now derives its original
importance from King's College (amalgamated with the University
of Aberdeen) and the Cathedral. The charter was renewed by
George I. when the power was conferred of electing its own magis-
trates, which are now a -provost, three bailies, a treasurer, and
council, with the deacons of six incorporated trades. The principal
curiosity in the neighbourhood is the old bridge, which crosses the
river Don by one Gothic pointed arch. Mr. Kennedy, in bis
"Annals of Aberdeen," states it to have been erected in the time of
Robert Bruce, by Bishop Cheyne. Woodside is a police burgh in
„this parish, with a population of 6,2^3, distant from Aberdeen 2
miles, and a statiou on the Great Nortn of Scotland railway. The
parish of Old Machar lies in the peninsula between the Dee and the
Don, where they join the ocean. Its length is about seven er eight
miles, and its greatest breadth four. The land rises in a gentle
slope from the sea, and is beautifully diversified by undulating
grounds. The windings of the Dee and Don— the manufactories
and the woods on the banks of the latter, interspersed with many
gentlemen's seats and villas, together with the numerous admirable
prospects of the sea — impart a pleasing variety to the general
appearance of the parish. Great improvements in agriculture, at a
very considerable expense, have been effected, which have been the
means of materially enhancing the value of the land, and beautifying
'" neighbourhood of Aberdeen. The parish of Old Machar
the
possesses an acreage of 12,148; in 1871 its population was 42,477,
and in 1881 it had increased to 56,002.
Nisg is a parish in Kincardineshire, situated near the termina-
tion of the ridge of the Grampian mountains. It is bounded by the
Dee on the north, which separates it from Aberdeen, and on the
south and west by Banchory-Devenick. It extends four miles in
length by two in breadth. Tbe parish church is distant 2 miles s.
from Aberdeen. The coast is bold and rocky. The north-east point,
called Girdleness, is a remarkable promontory, forming the south
side of the estuary of the Dee. There is a small bay called the Bay
of Nigg, close beside which are the ruins of the old parish church,
dedicated to St. Fiacre. The district comprises the fishing village
of Tokrt, which has a small harbour and pier, and contains
extensive brick and tile works; also a preserved provision manu-
factory. The Victoria Bridge, a handsome granite structure, now
spans the Dee, and connects Torry with Aberdeen. Cove is also a
small fishing village in the parish, situated 4 miles s. from Aberdeen,
and is a station on the Caledonian Railway. The parish has an
acreage of 4,432. The population in 1871 was 2,348, and in 1881,
2,985.
Cults is a pleasant suburb of Aberdeen in the pariah of Banchory-
Devenick, situated on the north bank of the Dee, on the road to
Ballater, distant from Aberdeen 4 miles s.w. and is a station on the
Deeside branch of the Great North of Scotland Railway. In the
vicinity are many handsome villas and cottages, chiefly the
residences of those engaged in business in Aberdeen. Population
returned with the parish.

ABERDEENSHIRE
SLATER'S
ABOYNE,
KINCARDINE-O'NEIL, GLENTANA, BIRSE AND LUMPHANAN.
ABOYNE, or Charlestown of Abovne, is a small village in the
parish of Aboyne, district of Mar, 30 miles from Aberdeen, 4
from Kincardine, 4 from Glentana, and 11 from Ballater, situated on
the north bank of the Dee, and in the County Court District of
Aberdeen. There is a station here on the Dee Side Railway. The
parish is united to that of Glentana, and is watered by the river just
named and likewise by tho Tana and tbe Allachy, which during heavy
rains become impetuous streams. Tbe forest of Glentana is extensive,
and contains some large timber. Woodend, the seat of Sir William
Cunliffe Brooks, Bart., m.p., is pleasantly situated in the district
of Glentana. The Dee here is crossed by a very handsome suspen-
sion bridge, built at tbe sole expense of the Marquis of Huntly in
1830 (re-erected by the County Road Trustees in 1S71), whose seat,
Abovne Castle, ornaments this locality. In the grounds of the
castle is a remnrkable stone, shaped like a coffin, with a cross cut
upon it. Loch Cannor is situated about 4 miles from Aboyne. It
contains some small islands, on one of which tbere is said to have
been a castle built by Malcolm Canmore. In the loch have been found
articles of antiquity, among them an old axe, several canoes of oak,
cut out of the solid tree, and a bronze pot. There is a good library
and readiug room in the village. In the parish there is an Estab-
lished church, besides a Free church, a Roman Catholic chapel, and
two schools. Fairs are held at Aboyne on the third Thursday in
January, March, Mav, August, September and December, second
"Wednesday in April, last Wednesday in June, the Friday after Aiky
fair in July, first Tuesday and Wednesday in October (old style),
and second Wednesday in November. The parish, which has au
area of 25,265 acres, in 1881, contained a population of 1,427.
Kincardine-O'Niel, a parish and village, the latter the seat of a
presbytery, is situated on the public road and the banks of the Dee,
between Aberdeen and Ballater, 26 miles from the former, 16 from
the latter, and 24 from Stonehaven. St. Erchan's well, whose waters
are said to be of a medicinal character, is situated near this village.
At Torphins, in this parish, are public school*, a Free church, au
Established church, and a station on the Dee Side railway, about
three miles from Kincardine-O'Niel. Dess station is about two
miles from Kincardine, and iu the neighbouring parish of Aboyne.
The buildings, which principally surrouud the church, command an
extensive prospect up the river, towards the Grampian mouutains,
and the place is much resorted to for the summer retirement of
invalids, being much protected from the north and east winds. In
early days, Kincardine was of some note, for it is upon record that
a wooden bridge was built across the Dee 600 years ago, tbe expense
of which was defrayed by a knight called Allan Durward. The
parish, which is about nino miles in length by six in extreme breadth,
is partly hilly and pastoral and partly arable, while in some places
are thriving plantations. The greater portion of the inhabitants
are occupied in agriculture, and others are employed by the manu-
facturers of Aberdeen in knitting worsted stockings. The village
contains Established, Free, and Episcopalian churches, a public
school, and a hall, which was erected in 1885 by public subscription.
Fairs are hejd on the second Tuesday in May and on the Wednesday
and Thursday after the last Tuesday in August (o.s.) Markets are
held at Torphins in January, May, November and December. The
acreage of the parish is 18,132, and the population in 1881 was 1,931.
Birse, the most southern parish of Aberdeenshire, lies on the
south bank of the river Dee, and forms nearly a square of ten miles.
There are three districts iu the parish, enclosed by the same number
of ridges of hills, which take a south-westerly direction towards the
Grampians from the river Dee; in the valleys formed by these
ridges run two streams of water — the Feuch and the Chattie. The
proportion of uncultivated land is very considerable, but the old
system of agriculture is giving way to modern improvements. The
road from Dundee to Inverness passes through this parish. Large
upright stones, cairns, and other monuments of antiquity are fre-
quently met with, as is limestone in abundance. The parish church
is distant about 28 miles from Aberdeen. Tho manse of the Free
church was erected in 1844, the church itself being built in 1843.
In the parish of Birse, in which there are ono proprietary and three
public schools, are the remains of two ancient encampments.
Acreage of the parish, 31,218. Population in 1SS1, 1,091.
Lumphanan parish, which lies to the north-west of the village of
Kincardine-O'Niel, is about six miles in length and four in breadth,
and is nearly surrounded by hills. The name signifies " the bare
little valley," but this designation is not in the present day applicable
to the lowlands, which are now well-cultivated and fruitful. ThiB is

MONTQUHITTER, CUMINESTOWN, GARMOND, INVERKEITHNY, YTHAN WELLS, BADENSCOTH, AND GORDONSTOWN.
AUCHTERLESS, a parish situatfl about midway between Aber-
deen and Banff, is about 7 miles loug and 3 broad ; the soil is
generally productive, and is watered by the river Ythan. The
vestiges of an extensive fortified camp, the enclosed area of which
is computed at 12U acres are well worthy the attention of the anti-
quary. Badenscoth aud Gordonstown are places in this
parish. Acreage, lb',826. Population in 1881, 2,144.
Inverkeithny, a parish in the south-eastern coiner of Banffshire,
lies on the right or south bank of the Doverou, ahmg which it
extends about 6 miles, and measures from one to four miles in
breath. Marnoek bounds it on the north, Turriff and Auchterless
on the east, Foigue on the south, and Rothiemay on the west. The
district is chiefly hilly. Acreage, 7,641. Population in 1881, 909.
Montqu hitter is a parish extending about 9 miles from north to
south, and 6 from east to west, bounded by Turriff on the west,
King Edward on the north, New Deer on the east, and Fyvie on the
south. The surface is uneven and arable in the lower parts. The district
was once very mossy and moorish, but has been considerably im-
proved. The parish is watered by two Bmall rivers; one of these
discharges itself into the Ythan, and other into the Devcron ; both
abound with trout. Cuminestown and Garmond are two villages in
this parish. Acreage, 17,433. Population in 1881, 2,794.

BALLATER,
WITH THE PARISH OF GLENMUICK, AND THE VILLAGES OF GLENGAIRN, TULLICH, PANNANICH WELLS, AND
NEIGHBOURHOODS.
BALLATER is an agreeable and quiet village in the parish of
Glenmuick, pleasantly situated upon the River Dee, 42 miles
from Aberdeen, 11 from Aboyne, and 18 from Braemar. It is much
resorted to in the summer by tourists, on account of the scenery
around, which combines both the picturesque and the grand. The
neighbourhood is also occasionally honoured by the presence of
royalty — Balmoral Castle being 9 miles distant, and Abergeldie
Castle, a seat of His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, 7 miles
distant. The ruins of Knock Castle are ornamental to the scenery
at one point, and the country is studded with many seats of the
gentry. Loch Cannor is in this neighbourhood ; on a small island
within it are the ruins of a castle, said to have been once a hunting
seat of Malcolm Canmore. The lake is beautiful and romantic in
its leatures, and skirted with birch, hazel and other woods. Speak-
ing of this district, indeed, it may be pronounced one of the most
interesting in Aberdeenshire. The village of Ballater is small, but
regularly formed — the Established church standing near to its
centre, and the Free church upon the outskirts. Several houses
have been erected expressly for the reception of visitors, and
additional accommodation is found in a very superior hotel —
the Ivercauld Arms— containing every convenience that may be
desired either by families or commercial gentlemen. The
Great North of Scotland railway line from Aboyne terminates here.
A military barracks, to accommodate about 70 men, was erected
hero in 1870. Fairs are held at Ballater on the second Tuesday in
! May, and the second Monday and Tuesday in September (o.s.), and
on the Saturday previous to the 22nd November (N.s.) Population
in 1881, 759.
Glenmuick is a large parish in the district of Mar, formed by the
union of the parishes of Glenmuick, Tullich, and Glengairn. It lies
about 40 miles w. of Aberdeen, is about 18 miles in length, and 15
in breadth, intersected by the Dee, and several of its tributary
streams. The soil is shallow and. early, producing good grain; the
hills are of considerable elevation, and many of them covered with
wood to the very summits. Specimens of lead ore have been found
near the castle of Glengairn, and limestone is everywhere abundant.
Acreage, 87,841. Population of the whole parish in 1881, 2,109.
In the village of Tullich are seen the remains of an old kirk, the
walls of which enclose the burial place of the Farquharsons, of
Whitehouse. The view from this spot looking towards the west is
much admired, and presents a series of hills rising oue above
another, with the lofty Lochnagar towering over all.
The mineral wells and baths at Pannanich are within about two
miles of Ballater, on the banks of the Dee. The waters are highly
serviceable in cases of scrofula and dyspepsia, and in all complaints
where the blood is either deficient in quantity or vitiated in quality ;
they have also proved beneficial in cases of stoue and gravel. The
increasing demand for accommodation evinces that the wells are
justly rising in public estimation. There is a good hutel adjacent
to the wells.

CRATHIE, or Crathy, is an extensive mountainous parish, in the , and gentry embellish this interesting locality,
heart of Mar, among the Grampian mountains, incorporating the j 1,560.
tins, incorporating the
suppressed parish of Braemae ; jointly they comprise a territory 40
miles in length and 20 in breadth. This district is supposed to
be more elevated above the level of the sea, and farther distant from
the coast in every direction, than any other parochial section in
Scotland. On some of the mountains snow may be found all the
year round; Ben-Macdhui, 4,300 feet in height, and Lochnagar,
3,800 feet in height, are among the stupendous eminences in this
quarter. Nearly the whole of this district was once covered with
wood, and was called the Forest of Mar, which, with those of the Duke
of Athol, in Perthshire, and the Duke of Gordon, in Badenoch and
Glenaven, constituted the principal part of the great Caledonian
forest. In Braemar, a considerable portion of the wood still remains,
which is well stocked with deer.
Balmoral Castle, the highland residence of Her Majesty Queen
Victoria, andAbergeldie Castle, belonging to His Royal Highness the
Prince of Wales, are in this parish, as is also Lochmuich, one of the
shooting boxes of His Royal Highness. Many seats of the nobility
Population in 1881,
Lochnagar, so famed forits whisky distillery, is likewisein Crathie
parish. The principal lakes are Loch Callater, and Loch Brotacban,
which contain trout, salmon and eels. The great military road
from Blairgowrie to Fort George passes the whole extent. On this
line is the village of Braemar, or Castletown, near wbich are tho
ruins of an ancient castlu, said to have been a hunting seat
of King Malcolm Canmore. The village is divided by the river Cluny
— the one side of the water, called Auchindryne, belonging to the
Earl of Fife, the other to Alexander Haldane Farquharson, Esq., of
Invercauld. At a short distance from Braemar, is the castle of Brea-
mar, ouce garrisoned by King William, and burnt in the contest
wbich tooK place betweeu the Royal forces and the Earl of Mar ; it was
rebuilt in 1749, and till witbin the last few years, was occupied by
Government troops, to prevent the smuggling which was so frequent
in this district. This part contains inexhaustible qaurries of limestone
and line slate. Braemar, with a population of about 350 persons,
possesses two first-class hotels, and is much resorted to in summer
by tourists.

CRIMOND, LONMAY, RATHEN, AND ST. FERGUS.
CRIMOND is a parish lying an equal distance from the towns of
Fraserburgh and Peterhead, upon the coast of Buchan, with a
front to the German Ocean of about three miles in breadth, which
declines to a point, inland, at the distance of rather more than five
miles. Rattray Head, on the coast, is a very dangerous promontory.
Near the east end of the lake Strathbeg is a small hill, called the
Castle Hill, where Comyu, Earl of Buchan, had a castle. About a
hundred years ago, there was communication between the loch
of Strathbeg and the sea, and a harbour at the east end, close to
the castle, for small craft ; in one night the mouth of the harbour
was filled up by the drifting of sand, and the communication has
been interrupted ever since. On this harbour formerly stood the
burgh of Rattray. There is a ruin of a small chapel near the site of
the old burgh of Rattray, said to have been erected by the Earl of
Buchan, about the year 1201). The only place of worship is a church
under the Establishment, and there is also a public school in the
village. The area of the parish is 5,891 acres, and its population
waB in 1881, H32.
The parish of Lonmay has about four miles of sea coast, is ten
miles long, and vanes in breadth from half a mile to four miles.
The soil ia various, but generally fertile. In this parish, about
four miles n.e., is the fishing village of St. Combs. There are two
Established and one Episcopalian churches iu the parish, also
several public schools. A considerable branch of the river Ugie
passes through the southern boundary of the parish for half a mile.
Rathen parish is about throe miles distant from Fraserburgh,
and is about eight miles long, with a medium of two in breadth,
covering an area of 9,587 acres. It possesses two creeks, on which
are built the fishing villages of Cairnbclg and Inverallochy.
The places of worship are the parish church, a neat modern edifice,
and a Free church, also a church of the Establishment at Inveral-
lochy, and public schools at Rathen and Inverallochy. There are
two old castles in ruins in the parish, which seem to have been
places of considerable strength. This parish is destitute of grow-
ing timber, though large masses of oak are occasionally dug up
from morasses. Population in 1881, 2,825.
St. Fergus, a village and parish, though locally situate on the
coast of Aberdeenshire, is in that part of the district of Buchan
which belongs to the county of Banff. It is bounded on the east by
the North Sea, and on the south by the small river Ugie, which
separates it from Peterhead. The village is five miles distant from
that town, and thirteen from Fraserburgh. Here are Established
aud Free churches, and a Baptist chapel, alBO public and endowed
schools. The great Field Marshal Keith, of whom ft statue iu
bronze was presented to the town of Peterhead by King Wil-
liam 1. of Prussia, was born in 1696, at Inverugie Castle, the ruins
of which, in a bend of the river, still attract the notice of the
traveller. Acreage of the parish, 8,856. Population iu 1881, 1,527.

ELLON, CRUDEN, FOVERAN, NEWBURGH, LOGIE BUCHAN,
AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
ELLON parish extends about nine miles in length from north to
south, and five in breadth, and comprehends an area of 22,259
acres. The surface is uneven and there are some risiDg grounds,
the heights of which are considerable. The village of Ellon is
about 16 miles n.e. from Aberdeen, pleasantly situated on the
Ythan, which is here crossed by a bridge. Upou the river, which is
navigable for large boats, within half a mile of the village, t trado
in coal and corn is carried on of some importance ; and the monetary
affairs of the district are facilitated by three hanking establishments ;
they are branches respectively of the Union Bank of Scotland,
Limited, the Town and County Bank, Limited, and the North of
Scotland Bank, Limited. Ellon was not at onetime an insignificant
village, but the asBize town of a populous district — the scene of penal
trial, the doomsman's place of execution, and the scene of mortal
combat. Within the last few years Beveral new and handsome
buildings have been eiectedin the village, audthepresentproprietor
(Arthur John Lewis Gordon, Esq. J. p.) gives every encouragement in
the way of feus, for which there are several very eligible sites. It
has many attractions, and therefore, in the summer season, there
are many visitors, who find excellent accommodation at Lamout's
Hotel. The trout fishing on tho Ythan has long been celebrated, as
also the pearls which are found in that river, one of which is the
great pearl in the Crown of Scotland.
The places of worship are Established and Free churches, and
others for United Presbyterians and Episcopal congregations. The
Established church has recently undergone several improvements,
which included the erection of a new organ and the putting in of
four additional windows, at a cost of about £500. A fine Episcopal
church, called St. Mary's, from designs by the late Mr. G. E. Street,
of London, is also in the village. There are several public schools
in the pariah. The market is held on the first and third Monday in
each month, also on Tuesday after the 11th of May, and on the
Wednesday after the 12th of November. Population of the entire
parish in 1881. 3.698, and or the village, 811.
Cruden parish lies on the east of Buchan district, extending from
eight, to niue miles along the shore, aud about seven miles inland,
and has an area of 18,236 acres. The soil is various, a large propor-
tion being a deep rich clay, while the remainder is light and gravelly,
with some mosses. Slains Castle, the seat of the Earl of Erroll, a
large edifice on a precipice overhauling the sea, and tho celebrated
" Buller of Buohan," are in this parish. The latter is a largo rocky
cavern, open to the sky, into which ttie sea rushes through a natural
archway. The rocks are probably one hundred feet in height, both
to the interior of "Tho Pot" and also on their sea front. It is
scarcely possible to overstate the impressing magnificence of theso
granite sea walls. The places of worship are Established and Freo
churches, and others for United Presbyterians and Episcopalians.
There is also a well-conducted school. Population of the parish in
1881, 3,444, and of the village 210.
The parish of Foveran extends seven miles in length from east to
west, and about two in breadth, and comprises 10,587 acreB. It is
distant from Aberdeen ten miles, aud from Belhelvie two, and its
general appearance is. level, but the ground rises by a gradual
ascent from the sea, though not to any considerable height. The
soil varies from sand to a rich loam and strong clay, the whole of
which is arable. The Ythan, navigable for about three miles, forms
the boundary on the north. The places of worship are the parish
church and a Free church. At the mouth of tho river is the small
village of Newbursh, iu which a considerable trade is carried on in
grain, lime, bones and guano. In this parish aro to be seen the
ruins of several ancient castles aud chapels. Population of the
parish in 1881,2,042.
Logie Buchan parish is over nine miles in length, but does not
average one mile in breadth. It is thirteen miles from Aberdeen, the
turnpike road crossing the parish between two aud three miles from
Ellon, and again four miles north of the same place. It is divided
into two parts by the river Ythan, to the right of which stands the
parish kirk. The surface of the country is tolerably level, and is
well cultivated, the soil being in general fertile. The Ythan is navi-
gable with the tide for boats to the extent of four miles up the
country, which is of material advantage to the agriculturists, by
supplying them with lime, &c. Acreage, 6,603, Population in 1881,

FRASERBURGH AND NEIGHBOURHOOD.
tjlRASEREURGH is a flourishing seaport town and burgh of barony
_E and regality, in a parish of the same name, 151 miles n.e. of
Edinburgh, 42 N. of Aberdeen, 22 E. of Banff {26 by the new road),
and 18 N.w. from Peterhead ; situated on the south side of Kinnaird
Head, a bold promontory, surmounted by a lighthouse, which is one
of the oldest under the Commissioners of Northern Lights. It is
built upon the site of a very ancient castle^ which was, about live I
hundred years ago, occupied by the Saltouu family. The parish
occupies the north-eastern angle of land in this part of the- county,
and extends about three miles and a half each way, containing
8,367 acres. At one time the name of the parish was Philorth, and
the possessions of Lord Saltouu here retain this appellation. The
original name of the burgh was Faithlie, and iul546 it was declared
a free port and burgh of barony by royal charter, in favor of Sir
Alexander Fraser, of Philorth. By a precept of sasinc granted by |
King James VI. in 1592, the name was altered to Port dc Fraser, and i
by a crown charter dated April 4th, 1601, the same monarch caused }
it to be a burgh of regality and the name changed to Fraserburgh, j
from the name of the proprietor or superior, Sir Alexander Fraser, of :
Philorth, to whom and his heirs these charters gave the superiority I
of the burgh and the right and authority of provost. The town is |
neatly built, forming a square, is well supplied with water, and tho
streets, which arc tolerably spacious, are lighted with gas by a|
company. Near the centre are the Town's House and a Cross — the ■
latter of modern date. A sheriff's small debt court is held monthly |
in the Dalrymplc Hall. The burgh is governed, under Lord Saltonn i
as superior, by a town council consisting of a bailie holding a com- ,
mission from his lordship, a dean of guild, and thirteen councillor!
of whom one is chosen as treasurer ; there is also a procurator j
fiscal and town clerk. An election takes place annually iu Novem- '
her, when the old magistrates and councillors nominato the new for i
his lordship's approval. The doau of guild has charge of the i
weights and measures, and the supervision of tenements and pre-
vention of encroachment on the streets and public thoroughfares.'
The magistrates and council direct the municipal affairs of the'
burgh, the chief and most important part of which are the adminis- !
tration of the common good. George A. Morris, Esq. is Lord j
Saltoun's commissioner and factor. In 1872 the burgh adopted the I
General Police and Improvement (Scotland) Act, 1862, and under'
that Act there are twelve Commissioners, elected by occupiers of;
£4 rent, three of whom are bailies. The Police Board is quite j
distinct from the Town Council, and has no control, except for police
purposes, over the town's property or its revenue. Under the Police
Bill now tl888) before Parliament, it is believed that the Town
Council and Police Commissioners will be amalgamated, thus putting
an end to the antiquated election of the councillors by the superior.
There is an excellent harbour, which has been much improved
during the last dozen years, under a Provisional Order of 1873, and
a new harbour act obtained in 1878. The harbour (the aunual
revenue from which is £8,000 to £10,000) is managed by the superior
of the burgh, the acting chief magistrate, the factor for the superior,
five persons elected by the feuars, two by the shipowners, two by the
police commissioners, three by the harbour ratepayers, and one by
the town council. A breakwater (commenced in 1875, and upon
which £72,000 has been expended) extending about 860 feet into the
bay in a southerly direction, has heeu comploted. Besides affording
a berthage to a large number of ships a*nd boats at low water as well
as high water, it shelters an area of 1%% acres, where from 5U0 to
600 fishing boats can be comparatively safe at all states of the tide.
A further sum of £70,000 has been expended in deepening the south
anil the north harbours, widening the piers, and other additions to
existing works. The berthage has been greatly enlarged lately, and
now extends to about 9,250 feet, where fishing boats can safely lie
aud discharge fish, and of which 6,425 feet is available for shipping.
With these improvements Fraserburgh now possesses ono of the
finest and most commodious harbours on the east coast of Scotland.
During spring tides vessels drawing from 16 to 18 feet outer the
harbour, and during neap tides the depth is from 13 to 15 feet. The
herring fishery, which has been established here for upwards of half a
century, has been so largely developed during tho last twelve years
that Fraserburgh may now be put down as the foremost station in
Scotland. The number of boats engaged iu this fishery is about 800,
and the annual value of herrings exported reaches from £200,000 to
£300,000. Within tho last few years the shipping entering the
harbour has averaged from forty to fifty-five thousand tons. A
pretty large trado is dono in timber, imported from Norway and
Sweden, the other chief imports being coals, salt, white fish, &c,
while the principal exports are herrings, grain, empty barrels,
potatoes, &0. Within tho burgh has been erected, at a cost of
£3,000, a hospital bearing the name of the donor, being called
Thomas Walker's Hospital. The site was given by the Right
Honourable Lord Saltoun, of Philorth. It is supported partly by an
endowment of £1,000, and by assessments on Fraserburgh and the
neighbouring parish of Rat hen. Dalrymple Hall and Cafe is also a
new erection, having cost In its entirety about £4,500. The origin
of this, like the hospital, is indicated by its name, and is due to the
credit of the late Captain John Dalrymple, who anxious to do some-
thing for the good of his native town, presented to a body of his
townsmen the site along with a sum of £1,700, as a nucleus for its
erection. Tho style of architecture is a modification of the Scottish
baronial. In addition to tho cafe, dining rooms, &c, it has a news
room, library, museum, school of art, recreation room, baths, Ac,
together with a public hall capable of holding 1,100 people, with
necessary anterooms.
The places of worship are two churches of the Establishment, a Free
church, a Scotch Episcopal church, dedicated to St. Peter, a United
Presbyterian church, one for Congregationalists, and chapels each
for the Baptists and the Evangelical Union. The Free church, which
was erected in 1880, at a cost of £6,500, on the site of the old parish
school, near the railway Btation, was built chiefly by subscription
from the congregation. It is of granite, and highly ornamental
both iu the interior and exterior, and on the whole is one of the
most handsome buildings of the-kind in the north. The educational
requirements of the parish are supplied by several institutions in
the town, aud of these the most important is the new public schools- '
which were erected at a cost of £7,000, and opened on the 12th
September, 1882, by the Right Hon. Lord Saltoun. The building is
of large dimensions, and has an imposing appearance. At the north
end of the schools a tower, in which are a clock and a bell, rises to
a considerable height, adding greatly to the architectural features of
the building and the importance of the burgh. The interior is
fitted up with all the latest improvements for tho comfort of the
pupils, including a system of folding doors whereby large rooms arc
speedily sub-divided into several smaller ones, and complete isola-
tion thereby obtained for each class with their teacher. Fraserburgh
Academy, which is also a well appointed building, was built at a

which though part of Fraserburgh parish, is disjoined therefrom by
the parish of Rathen, contains a school under the management of
the School Board ; it is also used as a preaching station in connec-

Fraserburgh extension of the Formal' tine and Buchan railway was
opened, and has greatly added to the interests of the town. There
are two first-class hotels here — the Saltoun Hotel and the
Station Hotel, in either of which will be fouud every convenience.

Cortes, in memory of her brother, James Strachan, Esq. m.d.,
Inspector-General of Army Hospitals, Madras ; it is managed by a
body of trustees composed of the members of the Kirk Session and
Lord Saltoun's commissioner. In the fishing village of Broad-sea,
which is within the burgh, there is a school of considerable dimen-
sions exclusively for the accommodation of the village children ; it
is under the management of the Kirk Session. A Fishermen's Hall
was also erected in the village, in 18S7 by public subscription, and is
a neat and commodious building. The district of Techmuiry,

FYVIE,
METHLICK, MEIKLEFOLLA, WOODHEAD, MILLBREX AND EOTHIENOBMAN.
EYVIE is an inland parish of 29,586 acres, on the high road from
Aberdeen to Banfft 7 miles n.n.w. from Old Meldrum, and 25
n.n.w. from Aberdeen, lying on both sides of the river Ythan, which,
between Fyvie and Methlick, flows through a romantic wooded gorge
called the Braes of Gight. Fyvie Castle, the seat of Sir Maurice
Dnff-Gordon, stands in a delightful situation; it is among the first
specimens of Gothic architecture, and has been repaired and greatly
improved. The scenery around is higlkly pleasing, and a beautiful
loch intersects the grounds. Near the church, on the banks of the
liver, are the rnins of a priory, founded along with the parish church,
in honour of the Virgin Mary, by Fergus, Earl of Bnchan, in 1179,
and was given to the abbey of Arbroath. The places of worship in
the parish are Established and Free churches — one each, and two
Episcopal churches, respectively situated at the villages of Wood-
head and Meiklefolda, and one Mission church in connection with
the Establishment. At Millbrex is a chapel of ease under the Es-
tablishment. Cattle markets are held at Fyvie station on the third
Thursday in every month. Rothienorman is a place in this parish
Population of parish in 1881, 8,313,
Mrthlick parish, about 6 miles n.n.w. from Fyvie, and 22 n.n.w.
from Aberdeen, is bounded by Fyvie on the west, New Deer on the
north, Savoch and Ellou on the east, and Tarves on the south; it
extends nine miles in length, by upwards of four in breadth, and
covers an area of of 14,842 acres. The district is intersected
throughout its extent, from the north-west to the south-east, by the
river Ythan, on the banks of which there now appear some thriving
and deccrattve plantations. The village is neat and rural, and close
to it the river is crossed by a neat iron bridge. There is a
church of the Establishment and also a Free church in the village,
the former erected in 1867, by the Earl of Aberdeen, at a cost of about
i!5,000. About two miles from the village is Haddo House, a seat of
the Earl of Aberdeen. Fairs are held in the village on the first
Thursday after the 11th of May, and the first Wednesday after the
18th of November. Population of the parish in 1881, 2,162.

HUNTLY,
WITH THE PARISHES AND VILLAGES OF CAIRNEY, FORGUE, GLASS, DRUMBLADE, GARTLY, YTHAN WELLS,
AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
HUNTLY, a burgh of barony and seat of presbytery, is a pleasing
and modern town, the capital of the parish of that name ; 128
miles n. of Edinburgh, 66 E. of Inverness, 38 n. of Aberdeen, 21 s.w.
of Banff, and 18 S.B. of Fochabers. The parish is about 10 miles in
length and 4 in breadth, formed by the annexation of the parishes of
Dunbenan and Kinnoir. Perhaps there is no part of the county in
which agriculture has achieved more success than in this parish. A
few years ago the general surface was anything but productive, but,
through systematic culture and perseverance, it has been wonder-
fully enriched, and now, for production and quality, is inferior to
none in the North of Scotland. The acreage of arable land is very
considerable, and some of the eminences are clothed with fine planta-
tions. The district is watered by the Bogie and the Deveron. St.
Mungo's hill, iu the district of Kinnoir, has the appearance of a vol-
cano, and on the summit there is an opening, which is generally filled
with water, though in dry seasons peat is obtained from it, strongly
impregnated with sulphur ; and pieces of lava, it is said, have been
found round it. Limestone, some of which approaches to the nature
of marble, and takes a very high polish, is obtained in the parish.
The town, which is well lighted with gas by a joint-stock company, is
iu a dry and salubrious situation, on the point of laud formed by the
confluence of the Bogie with the Deveron, the stream of each being
crossed by a handsome bridge. This place is neatly built, having two
principal streets crossing each other at right angles, and forming a
spacious square for the market place, the chief ornament in which
is the Huntly Brauder Publio Library, erected in 1885. This fine
building is in the perpendicular Gothic style of architecture of the
sixteenth century, and was presented to the town by William Brauder,
J£sq., of London, as part of a gift of £6.500 for educational purposes
to his native town. The library consists of about 5,500 volumes of
useful literature. A weekly newspaper, the Huntly Express, is pub-
lished in the town on Saturday. Stewart's Hall, iu Gordon street, \
burnt down in 1886, and rebuilt in 1887, is an imposing structure,!
surmounted with a tower containing a clock ; the large hall, used for
public meetings, &c, has sitting accommodation for 650 people. A I
cottage hospital is in course of erection as a jubilee memorial. The j
Duke of Richmond, who is superior, appoints a baron bailie. Justice j
courts are held as occasions require, in the above mentioned hall,
and a sheriffs small debt court quarterly, the jurisdiction of the j
latter extending over twelve parishes. The principal hotel here is |
the Gordon Arms, where tourists and visitors will find every accom- I
modation. Huntly is a station on the Great North of Scotland Rail- J
way. A constant supply of manures, coals, &c, and facility for the,
transmission of agricultural produce, are amongst the advantages [
which this line affords the town and neighbourhood. The town was
once famed for the weaving of fine linen, introduced by an Irish j
manufacturer iu the year 1768, and the quantity annually manufac-
tured used to amount to £30,000 or £40,000, but since the beginning
of this century this branch of industry has gradually decreased. It
is now a place of no particular manufacture, and the trade is merely
local and domestic.
There are besides the parish and Free churches, several
other places of worship in Huntly and its vicinage for the
various religious denominations, of which a list with their
officiating ministers is appended; among them is a handsome
Roman Catholic chapel. Several public and charitable educational
establishments are well sustained, and conducted with ability. The
•Gordon schools, opened in 1841, were founded by her late Grace of that
title, in 1839, and arc situated near to the Lodge, formerly the resi-
dence of that lady. The school premises, which are handsome, are
at the present time (1888), being enlarged and fitted with all modern
school appliances and apparatus, under a new scheme, propounded
by the Educational Endowment Commissioners of Scotland, providing
accommodation for a general public school and a senior department,
the nucleus of which is formed of the Brander foundationers, and
those whose education is paid for from the funds of the newly reformed
Gordon Trust. A home for the aged, founded and endowed by the
late Alexander Scott, Esq., of Craibstone House, affords an asylum
for the aged destitute of both sexes. Markets for cattle are held on
the first and third Wednesday of every month. A sheop fair is like-
wise held on the Thursday before the second Tuesday in August
<o.s.) Feeing markets for hiring servants are held on the Thursday
before the 26th of May, the second Thursday in July, and the Thurs-
day before the 2nd November. Population of parish in 1881, 4,388, of
which the town contained 3,519.
Cairney is a tolerably extensive parish, contiguous to that of
Huntly, lying chiefly in the county of Banff. The land for the most
part is mountainous, but much of it is, notwithstanding, in a high
state of cultivation, and bears prolific crops. Population of the
parish in 1881, 1,505.
Forgue is a parish 9 miles in length, and its greatest breadth
about 6 ; its situation is 4 miles n.e. of Huntly, and it is intersected
by two rivulets— the Fendraught and the Forgue. The soil in tbe
lower parts produces good crops, but towards the south the ground
is mostly covered with heath. On several of the estates much has
been done in planting and improving tbe wastes. The celebrated
Glendronach distillery is situated in this parish. The places of
worship are Established, Free, and Episcopal churches, the latter
consecrated in 1858 and dedicated to St. Margaret ; there are also
several public schools. Ythan Wells is a quoad sacra parish
containing a church of the Establishment and public schools.
Acreage, 17,354. Population in 1881, 2,422.
The parish of Glass is likewise adjacent to that of Huntly on the
west, and is also in both counties, lying on either side of the river
Deveron. Here is Blairmore House, tho scat of Alexander Geddes,
Esq., a recent erection in the castellated style. Population of parish
in 1881, 654.
Drumblade parish extends from 5 to 6 miles in length and from
4 to 5 in breadth. There are three tumuli, near one of which are
the remains of an encampment of King Robert Bruce, after he had
defeated Comyn, Earl of Bucban, near the burgh of Inverurie. The
soil is generally fertile, and tbe surface greatly diversified. There
are Established and Free churches and a public school. Population
of parish in 1881,943.
The parish of Gartly, partly in Aberdeenshire and partly in
Banffshire, is of an irregular oval figure, extending about 12 miles in
length by 6 in breadth. The Groat North of Scotland Railway has a
station at the southern extremity of the parish. The places of
worship are Established and Free churches, and there are also
public schools, one of which is a modern erection, occupying a
central position. The Duke of Richmond is sole proprietor of this
extensive tract. An excellent quarry of blue slate is in the parish,
and the hills afford peat in abuudance. Improvements in agri-
culture have been actively progressing for some years past. Popu*
lation of parish in 1881, 889.

ABERDEENSHIRE
INVERURIE AND KINTORE,
KEITH HALL, KINMUICK, KINKELL, PORT ELPHINSTONE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
INVERURIE is a parish of 4,946 acres, lying at the termination of
the peninsula between the river Urie on the north and the Don
on the son tli. The town, which is a royal bnrgh, is 16 miles n.w. of
Aberdeen, 22 s.w. of Huntly, and 5 w. by s. of Old Meldrum ;
pleasantly situated on the neck of land formed by the confluence of
the streams before mentioned. Tradition reports that Inverurie
was erected into a royal burgh by King Robert Bruce on the oc-
casion of a signal victory obtained by him in the neighbourhood
over Comyn, Earl of Buchan, the King of England's general in
Scotland. The oldest charter is a novodamus by Queen Mary, the i
preamble of which states that Inverurie had been a royal burgh
from time immemorial, but that the charter of its erection had been
lost during the civil wars. The town is now governed by a provost,
three bailies, a treasurer, and four councillors; and is included in
the Parliamentary division of the Elgin Burghs. A Town Hall was
erected here in 1862; it is a handsome structure of light-grey
granite, containing public hall, market hall, council chamber,
committee room, public library and museum, &c. ; the cost was
nearly ,£3,000. Inverurie confers the title of baron on the Earl of
Kintore, who has a fine mansion, Keith Hall, a little to the east of
the town. By means of the influence and under the patronage of
this noble family, a bridge was erected in 1791 over the Don, at an
expense of £2,000, and subsequently another was carried over the
Urie. The Bass of Inverurie, a conical mount, 50 or 60 feet high,
overhangs the isolated churchyard situated near it. Tho Bass ap-
pears to have been the site of the chief castle of the Earls of Gariocb,
as early as about the year 1200. The field in which it stands is still
called the Castle yards of Inverurie. The Town and County, the
North of Scotland, and the Union Banking Companies have each a
very respectable branch establishment here, and there is also a
Savings Bank. Inverurie has become a favourite resort during the
summer months, the Don and the Urie affording ample sport to the
angler. The Kintore Arras Hotel is replete with every comfort, and
visitors have also the privilege of fishing in the above rivers. The
opening of the Great North of Scotland Railway from Aberdeen to
Inverness, which has a station here, and a branch line to Old Mel-
drum, gave a new stimulus to industry, and the town, which is well
lighted with gas, and is now amply supplied with good water,
brought from the lands of Keith Hall, has a thriving appearance.
At the contiguous village of Port Elphinstone are established
meal and paper mills, and a brewery ; here also have been erected
several prettily-situated residences. ~ — ;;
The places of worship in the parish are Established and Free
churches, Episcopalian, Independent, Methodist, and Roman
Catholic chapels. A Freo church was erected in 1876, on
the left hand side of West High street. A free school,
under the management of the office bearers of the Free church, is
respeotably attended. A school built by Mr. William Clark is also
well attended. It is placed under the management of the magis-
trates. Markets are held every third Tuesday, those for 1888 being
held January 17; February 7; February 2S (feeing market); March
20 (F. M. married servants) ; April 10; May 1 ; May 22; Wednesday,
May 23 (feeing market); June 12; July 3; July 10 (day before
St. Sairs); July 24; August 14; September 4; September 25;
October 16; November 6; November 20 (feeing market) ; November
27; Thursday, December 13 (Christmas market); and December 18.
The markets from the 1st April to the end of September, are held on
the market stance. North street ; and from the 1st of October to the
end of March, in Market place. Population of the parish in 1881,
3,038.
Kintore is likewise a royal burgh, and gives it name to the parish,
which comprises 9,092 acres. The town, which is small, is 12% miles
N.w. from Aberdeen, and between 3 and 4 s.e. from Inverurie,
situated on the public road near the Don. It is a station on tho
Great North of Scotland railway, which is also the junction for
Alford. The burgh is governed by a provost, two bailies, a dean of
guild, and a treasurer, assisted by a council of eight other burgesses ;
and is in the same parliamentary division as Inverurie. In this
parish are numerous cairns and tumuli, which are said to point out
the position where Robert Bruce overtook and destroyed the army of
Edward I. after the defeat of Comyn, Earl of Buchan, near Inverurie ;
and within the parish are the ruins of Hall Forest Castle, formerly
a hunting seat of Kint; Robert, now the property of the Earl of
Kintore, to whom three-fourths of the parish belongs. Two churches,
respectively of the Established and Free, with two Board schools
and a General Assembly school, are in the parish. The North of
Scotland Bank, Limited, have here a branch establishment. The
markets formerly held here have been discontinued. Port
Elphistone, which is noticed under the hend of Inverurie, is in this
parish. Population of tho parish in 1881, 2,327; 661 of this number
belonging to the town.
Keith Hall and Kinkell form a united parish of 7,601 acres, in
the district of Garioch, lying on the left banks of the Urie and Don,
which rivers unite opposite its centre. It is recorded that many
who fell in the battle of Harlaw were buried at Kinkell, which, at
that period, was the principal church in this part of ihe county.
The Earl of Kintore has a seat in this parish. At Kinmoick, in this
parish, the Society of Friends established themselves about the year
1662. The present meeting house was probably built about 1681,
and formerly contained accommodation for a school and residence
for the master. It has since been improved, and contains a free
library with many ancient and modern works, illustrative of the
history and doctrines of the Society. Their burial ground is near
it, on the opposite side of the road. Population in 1881, 880.

CLUNY, KEMNAY, FETTERNEAR, TILLYFOURIE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
MONYMUSK parish is abont 7 miles long and from 4 to 5 broad,
with an area of 10,728 acres, and is distaut 8 miles s.w. from
Inverurie. Monymusk House, the seat of Sir Arthur Grant, Bart., is
situated on the right bank of the Don, environed by fine plantations.
The village is built in the form of a square, with the parish church in
the centre, apart of which is believed to have been erected about
the time of Malcolm Canmore. There was formerly an ancient priory
beside it. The estate is remarkable for its fine timber, some larch
and fir trees near the river being of unusual size. The Alford branch
of the Great North of Scotland line has a station about half a mile
from the village. Tillyfocrle, where are extensive granite quarries,
is also a station on this line. Population in 1881, 1,155.
Cluny parish is in the district of Kiucardine-O'Neil, situated
between the Dee and the Don waters, distant 18 miles w. from Aber-
deen and 8 s.s.w. from Iuverurie. In length it is about 10 miles, and
in breadth from 2 to 3 miles. Four-fifths of the parish are under culti-
vation. There are three druidical remains and several cairns in this
district, besides two large castles — Castle Fraser, said to have been
erected in the beginning of the 15th century, and Cluny Castle, the
chief part of which is a handsome modern erection. Linton House
is also in this parish. There are ruins of a large castle at Tillycairu.
Acreage 9,741. Population in 1881, 1,298.
Kemnay parish is 4}-z miles in length, and 3 in breadth. The
village is distaut 15 ni'los n.w. from Aberdeen, and 5 s.w. from
Iuverurie, and is a station on the Alford branch of the Great North
of Scotland Railway. The house of Kemnay is delightfully situated,
and at a short distauce from it, on the other side of the river Don, is
the house of Fetternear, the seat of the Leslies of Balqubain. The
Kemnay quarries are worked for a beautiful blue granite, suitable
both for building and polishing purposes. In the village are a church
of the Establishment, a Free church, and a public school. Acreage,

NEW AND OLD DEER,
AUCHNAGATT, FETTERANGUS, LONGSIDE, MINTLAW, MAUD, STEWARTFIELD AND NEIGHBOURHOODS
NEW DEER parish lies almost in the centre of Bucban district,
and extends fourteen miles from north to sontb, and about
seven in breadth. At New Maud, abont three miles from New Deer,
is a railway station, and there are also stations at Mintlaw and
Longside. The village, which is well built, is situated about thirty
miles north from Aberdeen. The places of worship in the parish
are the parish church, a Free church, and a Congregational chapel
in the village of New Deer, and one each of the Establishment at
New Maud and Savoch. There are also Presbyterian churches at
Whitehill and Artamford. The educational requirements of the
parish are well supplied by public schools. About two miles from
the church stands an old castle, called Federate, which appears to
have been a place of considerable strength. There are a few re-
mains of drnidical temples, and several tumuli ; these having been
opeued were found to contain urns, enclosed in stone coffins. Three
miles from New Deer is Brucklay Castle, built in the year 1540, the
seat of Mrs. Christina Dingwall Fordyce. The situation of the
castle is most romantic, and the scenery delightful ; the lawns are
tastefully laid out, and the park is beautified and encircled by the
waters of the Ugie. Many parts of the castle have been re-built,
adding greatly to its beauty. A market is held on Tuesday, and
fairs on the third Wednesday in January, Wednesday after the 12tb
of April, Thursday before 26th, or 26th if Thursday, of May, Wednes-
day after 19th of June, second Tuesday in August, Wednesday after
19th of October, and Thursday before 22nd, or 22nd if Thursday, of
November. Acreage 26,750. Population of the entire parish in 1881,
4,875.
Old Deer parish is ten miles in length, by a mean breadth of
between five and six, and comprises 27,363 acres. Like New Deer,
it lies in the district of Buchan, and contiguous to the former parish.
The village is situated some five or sis miles distant, lOJ-j west from
Peterhead, and 30 north from Aberdeen by the Mintlaw road, and
has places of worship in connection with the Established and Epis-
copalian churches. This parish also contains the village of Fetter-

angus, about three miles from the village of Old Deer, in the county
of Banff, in which are Established and Presbyterian churches ; and
also the village of Stewartfield, which is one mile from Old Deer,
and at which place the Free Church, Presb\terians, and Independents
have churches. At Ardalie is a church of the Establish-
ment, aud at Clola one belonging to the Free Church. In the
parish are eight public schools. A branch of the river Ugie inter-
sects the parish about its centre, whilst another branch enters it
for a short course on the north ; upon these streams are several
mills. The abbey of Dee, which stands about a mile from the
village, was built in the beginning of the 18th century, by William
Comyn, the Earl of Buchan ; it is mostly in ruins, but there is still
enough remaining to show what it originally was. There were at
one time no less than twelve druidical temples, of which four,
tolerably entire, are yet remaining. The Druid's temple at Biffie is
the most conspicuous, and is an object of great attraction to the
antiquarian and traveller. The pleasure grounds and woods of
Pitfour will at once arrest the admiration of strangers. Near the
village of Old Deer is a cemetery, which was opened in 1875. A fair
is held at Aiky Brae on the first Wednesday after the 19th of July,
and at Old Deer on the first Wednesday after the 19th of December.
The population of the whole parish in 1881 was 5,104.
Longside, also a parish in Buchan, contains the village of its
name, which latter is about 80 miles north of Aberdeen, 6 west of
Peterhead, and 4 east from Old Deer. A handsome church was
opened here on the 7th of August, 1836 ; an Episcopalian
church, a Free church, and public schools are also in the
village. The village of Mintlaw, in this parish, is 8 miles from
Longside, on the road leading from Aberdeen and Fraserburgh.
Cattle markets are held at Longside on the second Thursday after
the second Tuesday in every month. Feeing fairs are held on the
second Thursday in May and the second Tuesday in November.
Acreage of the parish, 16,836. Population in 1881, 3,222.

NEW MACHAE,
BELHELVIE, FINTRAY AND UDNY.
NEW MACHAR is a parish in tlio district of Baclinn, lying chiefly
in Aberdeenshire, but partly in the county of Banff; it extends
nine miles in length, by two an J a halt in breadth, and has an area
of 9,002 acres. The parish kirk is situated in tlie village of Summer-
hill, ten miles from Aberdeen, where there is also a Free church
and a public school. The New Maohar station of the Great North of
Scotland Railway is just out of the village. The country is generally
rath, r flat, and the soil is mostly arable, with several patches of "wet
rnossy land; while in the southern quarter are some fine plantations.
There is a small lake near the boundary of Old Machar, called
Bishop's Loch, in which is an island, whereon stand the ruins of a
castle once belonging to the Bishops of Aberdeen. Population iu
3881, 1,505.
Fintuay pariah is five miles in length, by from three to four in
breadtb. On the banks of the Don the bind is fertile and susceptible
of profitable cultivation, but otlier parts are hilly. An abbey for-
merly existed in this parish. The Rev J. Leslie, a late minister,
possessed a stone inscribed with the date 1386, supposed to have
formed a fraction of the building, and a silver cap, dated 1633, which
tradition records to have been manufactured from the silver of the
image of St. Meddin, the tutelar saint of the parish. The kirk is
about ten miles and a half from Aberdeen. There is a station on the
Great North of Scotland lino of Kinaldie, about one mile from the
village of Hatton. Acreage, 7,319. Population in 1881, 1,032.
Udny parish extends about five miles in lengtb and breadtb, and
contains a neat and pleasantly situated village, 14 miles N. of Aber-
deen, and four from New Machar. The soil of the parish is for the moat
part fertile, and the land enclosed and well cultivated. There is a
church of the Establishment, a Froe church, and two public schools
in the parish, and a station near the village on the Great North of
Scotland Railway. Fairs are held at Udny station the last Thursday
in every month Acreage, 11,543. Population iu 1881, 1,638.
Belhelvils is a coast parish in the district of Formartine, eight
miles from Aberdeen. The aspect of the country is very unfavour-
able, especially at a distance from the sea coast, where it exhibits
nothing but heath and stones ; towards the sea, however, there is
some arable land. The places of worship are the parish church and
one for United Presbyterians. Acreage, 12,181. Population in 1881,
1,850.

OLD MELDRUM, BOURTIE AND TARVES.
OLD MELDRTJM is a parish, a burgh of barony, and a market
town — the latter pleasantly situated on the road from Aberdeen
to Banff, 18 miles n.w. of the former, 27 s.e. from the latter, and 5
n.e. from Inverurie. The streets and dwellings aio irregularly laid
out, hut of late have been much improved. The principal public
buildings are the Town Hall, which has a neat tower, with an illu-
minated clock, and the public school. Meldrum was constituted a
burgh of barony in the year 1672, under tlie jurisdiction of two
bailies ; B.C. Urquhart, Esq., is superior of the burgh. The seat of this
gentleman (Melurum House), is romantically situated, and, from its
antique style of architecture, possesses a striking effect ; and being
surrounded with fine scenery, presents the characteristics of a
delightful residence. The principal brauches of business are com-
posed in an extensive distillery, a brewery, and corn mills. The
district is partly arable and partly pastoral; the soil of tho southern
portion is fertile, but that of the northern shallow and less fruitful.
Tho places of worship aro the Established, Free, United Presbyterian,
and Episcopal churches. The market is held every other Tuesday.

of hills— the greater part clothed with refreshing verdure. The
remains of ancient fortifications are visible throughout this district.
There is a church of the Establishment and a public school within
the parish. Population in 1881, 463.
The parish of Tarves lies between Ellon and Old Meldrum, being
four miles distant from the latter place, is bounded by Meth-

miles, and its breadth six, and embraces au area of 16,303 acres.

some hills of inferior altitude. The soil is diversified in its com-
position, but is for tho most part fertile, and there aro some fine
plantations ou thevergo of the river. Bart-hoi. Chapel and Craig-
dam are hamlets in this parish, at the former of which is a church

PETERHEAD,
WITH THE VILLAGES OF BODDAM, BUOHANHAVEN, BTJRNHAVEN, INVERNETTIE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
PETERHEAD is a considerable sea-port town, a burgh ol barony,
and parish within the district of Buchan, 141 miles N. by w. of
Edinburgh, 84 s.e. of Bnuff, S2 n.e. of Aberdeen, 18 s.s.e. of Fraser-
burgh, and 524 miles from London. It is situated upon a peninsula
(the most easterly point of Scotland), about a mile south of the
mouth of the river Ugie, the isthmus between the peninsula and the
mainland being only eight hundred yards wide. The town is built
in the form of a cross, and is divided into four districts called the
Kirktoivn, Ronheads, Keith Inch, and Pctrrhead Proper. The houses,
which are built of granite (so abundant in various parts of the
country), are all of them neat, and many of them commodious and
elegant. The town is gas-lighted, and the inhabitants are plen-
t<*onsly supplied with excellent spring wnter. In years gone by the
wells of Peterhead were much frequented ; the waters are chalj'beate
IWtd are abundant in the town and neighbourhood. Fossil shells in
gi'i'iit quantities, aud of various kinds, are found in the neighbour-
hood, twenty or thirty feet above the level of the sea, and these of
Muds not to be met with in an original state ; many curious pebbles
also may.be picked up on the shore. The ruius of Inverngie Castle
are situated about 2%£ miles from Peterhead. The walla of this
castle are still standing, and by meaus of a wiuding staircase in one
of the towers, an ascent may be made to the roof, and a beautiful
view of the valley of the Ugie obtained. The ruined castle of
Ravenscraig stands on the opposite side of the river, about a quarter
uf a mile from luverugie Castle. It ia built upon a rock, and is a
^erygood specimen of the ancient Scottish baronial style, in the
pquare form so common to the beginning of the 18th century. Its
walls are of such strength that, previous lo the use of artillery, they
would have rendered the plncb impregnable. Numerous elegant
buildings hare within recent years been erected in the centre of the
town. The Court House, a handsome building of granite, is in
Queen street, in which the sheriff's court is held weekly, on Friday.
A public building which claims particular attention is the Town
House, at the head of the principal street. It is an elegnut edifice,
fiO feet long and 49 feet wide, with a spire 1*25 feet high, and a
line illuminated clock. The town hall, one of the apartments, is a
spacious room. The Music Hall buildings, a large and beautiful
pile, comprising upper and lower halls, small halls and con-
venient ante-rooms, &c, with fine shops on the ground floor,
and the new lines of bous' a in Chapel atreet aud Queen
street, add much to the attraction and importance of the town.
Peterhead was founded and erected into a bur^h of barony by
George, Earl Mariscbal, in the year 1593 ; but in 1715 it was forfeited
by this family, in consequence of their adherence to the unfortunate
house of Stuart, and purchased with the neighbouring lands, by the
York Building Company in 1726, but that concern being dissolved,
it was bought by the trustees or governors of the Merchant Maiden
Hospital, Edinburgh, for £3,000, who are still the superiors. In
front of the town hall and facing the main street, has been erected
a pedestal of granite, on which has been placed a magnificent statue
in bronze of Field-Marshal James Franois Edward Keith, born at
luverugie, in 16911, which statue waa presented, by request, to the
borough of Peterhead, by King William I. of Prussia, in 1868. The
pedestal bears the following inscription : — " Field-Marshal Keith
born at luverugie, 1696: killed at the battle of Hochkirchen, 14
October, 1758. The gift of William I. King of Prussia, to the town
of Peterhead. August, 1808. Probus vixit, fortis obit.''''
Peterhead ia governed by a provoat and magistrates and town
council. The nomination of the magistrates was, by charter, vested
in the superiors of the town and the magistrates and councillors,
the latter of whom were formerly elected byamnjority of the feuars,
but since the elective franchiae waa conferred upon the burgh, the
magistrates and councillors are elected by the householders therein.
Tlio towu now enjoys the privileges of a Parliamentary
burgh, iud in conjunction with Kintore, Elgin, Cullen, Banff ani
Inverurie, returns one member for Parliament— the present member
being Alexander Asher, Esq. Upon the county of Aberdeon being
divided into an Eastern and Western Division, and returning two
Harbour of Refuge Works are also being prosecuted on
an extensive scale and employ a large amount of free labour.
At present Peterhead possesses the grand advantage of north and
south harbours, respectively of eleven and seveu acres in extent,
commonicatiug by means of a canal or channel, over which ia an
elegant and permanent cast-iron swing bridge, upon the construction
of which upwards of £8000 was expended. In the north harbour
there are two graving or dry docks, and at the entrance to both har-
bours are good lighthouses. Adjacent to the north harbour ia also
the recently built boat harbour of Port Henry. The South Bay,
which is the site of the projected harbour of refuge, has good anchor-
age. The revenue of the harbours iu 18U0 was only £100, while in
1849 it amounted to £4.000 ; in 1858, to £4,391 19s. 7d. ; in 1875, up-
wards of £8.000; iu 1881 the income was over £10,000; and in 1884,
upwards of £11,000 ; since then, huwover, o vying to the depression in
the local fisheries, it has to some extent declined. In no object is
this community more deeply interested than iu the whale and sea
fisheries, many having their capital largely invested, and others their
friends and relatives engaged in this important but hazardous branch
of industry. More than eighty years have now elapsed since the first
vessel sailed from Peterhead for the icy regions; aud while many
other ports have been declining, and some have given up the trade
altogether, Peterhead has still continued it, and holds a high posi-
tion among the British ports in the whale fishery. Iu the year 1788
one vessel was sent out, and up to 1803 there was no increase. From
1804 to 1814 the number varied from two to eight, and to 1830 from
ton to sixteen ; but iu 1843 it had decreased to nine. After that date
the number again increased, but within the last twenty years it has
considerably declined, and at present owing to the exhaustion of
the Arctic fishing grounds, the industry is threatened with extinction.
The herring fishery, which was commenced here in 1818 by a joint
stock company, has become important, Peterhead having uowattainud
the first rauk in this branch of maritime industry. Independent of tho
fishing and shipping trades, the town enjoys a good local trade. There
arc also two extensive and prosperous granite polishing establish-
ments, employing upwards of 100 men, and Peterhead granite has
uttainediconsiderable popularity throughout tho world. Between the
years 1817 and 1822 inclusive, 35,112 tons of this stone were shipped
at Peterhead, chiefly in large blocks, for the docks at London; but
since that period the exportation has considerably decreased. Tho
quarries are largely worked by Aberdeen polishing firms. The
Formartine and Buchan section of the Great North of Scotland
Railway, opened in 18G2, connected Peterhead with Frasorburgh and
Aberdeen.
Tho Established church, situated at the conjunction of tho south
and west roads, combines elegance with convenience, and has a tine
spire. There are also three quoad-sacra chapels in Queen street,
Boddam, and at Blackhill. The Episcopal churcn is a handsome
modern edifice, in the design of which the architect has displayed
considerable taste. The other places of worship include two for the
Free Church, a chapel erected in 1870 for Independents, a United
Presbyterian church, a chapel for Methodists, a Baptist meeting
house, aud a chapel for Roman Catholics; the last named is one of
the best specimens of architecture in the town. The governors of
the Merchant Maiden Hospital, of Edinburgh, proprietors of the
estate at Peterhead, have laid out and enclosed a large apace of
suitable ground at Peterhead as a public cemetery.
Amongst the literary institutions of the town may be mentioned,
as the principal, a Reading Society, established in 1808, and a
"Mcchauics' Institution, founded in 1S36. The library belonging to
the Reading Society numbers upwards of five thousand volumes,
and the library of the Mechanics' Institute about one thousand.
There ia also a solicitors' library. A very valuable museum, collected
by the late Adam Arbuthnot, Esq., by whom it was bequeathed to
the authorities for the use of tho town, contains a great variety of
specimens from the animal aud miueral kingdoms, while the collec-
tion of coins is one of the most complete to be met with. The
museum is under the care and management of the magistrates and
members to Parliament, Peterhead was created the returning burgh town council, and a scheme is at present on foot to provide a building
for the eastern division, and is known as the capital of Buchan, or I for its accommodation, and as the nucleus of a science and art
museum. There are also several excellent schools. There are two
newspapers published here — the Peterhead Sentinel, established in
1856 (the proprietor, Mr. David Scott, having published several
interesting works connected with tho district), and the East Aber-
deenshire Observer, both creditably conducted, and enjoying an
encouraging circulation iu the district of Buchan. Both are issued
twice a week. The market is held on Friday, aud the fairs on the
East Aberdeenshire.
For a long series of years the harbours of Peterhead have been j
held to be of great importance. So early as 1661, iu the first Parlia- !
meiit of King Charles II. an act was passed " for a contribution for
repairing tho harbours of Peterhead." Iu 1705 an act of tho Scottish
Privy Council was obtained for a voluntary contribution within all
tlie. parish churches of the three Lothians and bewest of the Forth, ! _.
lor building and repairing these harbours; and in 1729, and again in I third Tuesday in May aud the second Tuesday iu November. The
1739, the convention of royal burghs authorised a voluntary contri- ! population of the burgh was in 1871, 8,621, and in 1881, 10,953.
buliuQ throughout all the royal burghs in Scotland for the same I Boddam is a neat village and considerable fishing station, in the
purpose. In 1807, and again in 1827, acts of Parliament were ob- 1 parish of Peterhead, about four miles south of that town. The

sums have been expended on the harbours, and when the contem- ! at a cost somewhat exceeding £2,000, and au act of Parliament was

TURRIFF,
KING EDWARD, AND NEW EYTH.
rpURRIFF is a free burgh of barony (of which the Earl of Fife is the
1 feudal superior), tho seat of a presbytery, and the capital of the
parish of that name, 34^ miles n.n.w. of Aberdeen, 17 n.n.w. of Old
Meldrum, and 11 s.s.e. of Banff, situate ou a tributary stream of the
Dcveron, near that river. Its charter, dated the 10th of March, 1511,
was granted by James IV. in favour of Thomas Dickson, prebeud of
Turriff. By this tho inhabitants were entitled to hold a weekly market
on tho Sabbath day, and three fairs annually, each to continue eight
days. A sheriff's small debt court is held quarterly in the Town Hall,
and justice of peace and xi0'icc courts when required. In 1858
the householders adopted certain provisions of tho Police Im-
provement (Scotland) Act of 1850, and latterly almost the entire
provisions of the more recent act of 1862, in virtue of which
the affairs of the burgh are regulated aud administered by nine com-
missioners of police, three of whom are elected annually. These
commissioners elect from their own uumber one senior and two
junior magistrates, who in their turn appoiut a procurator fiscal aud
clerk of court, and within their jurisdiction exercise iu all cases of
petty offences the functions of sheriff and magistrates of police.
Turriff is oue of the most flourishing little towns iu the north of
Aberdeenshire. Tho place is clean and neat, and gas-lighted by a
.joint-stock company, formed in 1837. In the same year a branch of
the Commercial Bank of Scotland, Limited, was established here,
aud subsequently three other banks, all doing a prosperous business.
One of these, the North of Scotland Bauk, Limited, has erected, at a
cost of about £2,000, a handsome building situated at the junction of
Main street with High street, the stylo of architecture heiug the old
Scotch baronial. The stone used is the red saudstono from tho
quarries iu the neighbourhood. The tower contains a clock having
dials facing north, south, and west, which is fitted up with self-light-
iug apparatus, and serves as a town's clock. There are*several inns
and posting houseB. The places of worship are Established, Free,
and Episcopalian churches, and there are public audinfauts' schools,
and a private academy in which boarders are received. The vicinage
of Turriff is of an agreeable character, and the neighbourhood
very respectable; several families of distinction are among tho
residents. For^len House, the scat or Sir Robert John Aborcroiubie,
Bart., a few miles distant, is one of the most elegant and imposing
mansions in the north of Scotland. Among the industries may bo
named woollen manufacturing and the curiugof pork, &c. Fairs are
held ou the second and fourth Wednesday In each month, also Satur-
day before the 27th of May (feeing market), and Saturday before tho
23rd of November. The population of the parish of Turriff, the
acreage of which is 18,388, was in 1881, 4,343, of which the town
contained 2,304.
King Edward is a parish, 5 miles N. from Turriff, in the northern
part of the county, 12 miles in length from west to east, by from 2 to
5 in breadth, its western extremity being washed by the Deveron; on
the north it is bounded by Gamrie, on the east by New Byth, and ou
the south by Turriff. The general surface is undulating; there are
extensive plantations, and tho district i3 advanoed in agriculture. A
streamlet, tributary to tho Deveron, pursues a westerly direction
through tho parish, and on its right bank stand the ruius of tho
ancient castle of King Edward, once the seat of the potent Comyns,
Earls of Bucb.au. Acreage, 18,570. Population in 1881, 3,068.
New Byth, formed into a quoad sacra parish iu 1868, is bounded by
Gamrie and Aberdour on the north, King Edward on the west,
Turriff aud Montquhitter ou the south, and New Deer and Tyrie on
the east. It is composed of part of King Edward, New Deer and
Aberdour, and was provided with a chapel in 1793. The village of
Now Byth is situated about a mile from a public road, the luhabitants
being engaged chiefly in agriculture. Excepting towards the north
and west, the general aspect of the parish is bleak. Byth House, one
of the seats of B. C. Urquhart, Esq. of Old Meldrum, is situated about
a mile north of the village, aud is surrounded with wood, the ouly
relieving feature of the district. Fisherie and Crudie are places
in this parish. Population of the village in 1881, 491.

ARGYLESHIRE,
OK, as it is .frequently written Argyllshire, is a large couuty in the south-wcstoru extremity of the Highlands. What may be termed the
continental part is bounded on the north by Inverness-shire, on the east by that couuty aud Perthshire and Dumbartonshire, aud
on the south and west by bays aud straits of the Atlantic Oceau. Its extreme length is ouo hundred and iiftoeu miles; its breadth
averaging about thirty-three, and it has not less than six hundred miles of coast washed by the sea. The mainland, including the
peninsula of Kiniyrc, has been computed to contain 2,735 square miles ; while the islands conuocted with it are supposed to comprise 1,063
more ; whereby the whole extent of land in Argyleshirc may be estimated at 3,798 square mil -s. In point of size, Argyloshiro ranks as the
second county in Scotland, and in population as the twelfth. The county is divided into six principal districts — Argylk Proper, Cowal,
Islay, Kintyre (or Cantyre), Lorne, and Mull. Cowal is divided from Dumbartonshire by Loch Long, aud bounded by Loch Fyne ou
the west ; betwixt Loch Fyne and Loch Liunho, and stretching away to the north, is Lome ; from which, ou its south-west quartor, there
extends in a southerly direction into the Irish Sea the peninsula of Kintyre. The islauds of Mull, Jiu-a, and Islay are divided from tlio
continent, or from each other, merely by narrow sounds, aud may be taken from their proximity aud accessibility as little else than
portions of the mainland, surrouuded by salt water rivers. There aro other districts of inferior size within the principal ones— as
Ardnatnurchan, the most westerly point of Sunart; Appin, a piece of Lorne bordering on Loch Linnhe ; Gleuorchy, another portion of
Lorno on its eastern side ; and Knapdalc, occupying a position between Kintyre and Nether Lorne.
Early History. — This county, together with that of Perth, is presumed to have constituted the ancient Caledonian Kingdom, while
the Komaus and Picts were in possession of the greater part of Scotland. In former 0.303 th3 western coast of Argyleshire was perpetually
exposed to descents and depredations of the Danes and tho Irish, but the original inhabitants never sufferod them to penetrate any
considerable distance into the interior; if au enemy landod, or wa3 seen hovering on the coast, in the course of a few hours the whole
country was alarmed, and the men repaired to the shore completely armed. The heroes celebrated by Ossiau were a militia, established
iu Argyleshire, for the purpose of defending the country in any sudden emorgency. Of old the chieftain was considered the father, rather
than the master of his clan; his followers loved him with a degree of enthusiasm which made them cheerfully undergo any fatigue or
dauger; and it was his interest, as well as his pride and glory, to requite so animated an adherence to the utmost of his power. The
rent paid him was chiefly consumed in feasts given at the habitations of his tenants; on these occasions they all lived together as
friends, and the departure of the chief always occasioned deep regret. The cattle aud corn formerly consumed at these
feasts of hospitality were, in more polished times, required to he brought to the landlord's mansion, and thus friendship degenerated
into oppression. Campbell of Auchiubreck had anciently a right to carry off the best cow ho could find upon several properties
each Martinmas, by way of mart — the island of Islay paid live hundred such cows yearly; but this badge of slavery has beeu
converted into a modus of twenty shillings a head. Tho inconveniences attending this state arose from the petty quarrels
between neighbouring clans, excited by a spirit of plunder, aud absurd points of fantastical honour. At this period
the Scottish kings had no authority over this part of tho country; the M'Doualds of the Isles assuming royal powers,
holding parliaments, and enacting laws, until the Bruces brought the disorderly clans into some kind of subordination.
From this time, iu their different wars with the English, the chiefs had recourse to the assistance of the Highlanders, with whom, and
tho inhabitants of the Low country, thoy contracted debts, rendering the condition of the middle classos worse, as the chiefs found it
neccss iry to require an addition to their yearly revenue; and in order to enforce obedience, recourse was had to penal laws. Iu this
respect the king was obliged to gratify his feudal barons ; for thoy were always formidable to his throne. But when the laws presented
any obstacle to their rapacious exactions, they openly set them at deliance ; thoy erected gibbets, and hanged their tenants without trial
or mercy. The evil at last became so flagrant, that a jury aud bailiff or sheriff were introduced ; but this measure did not remove the
mischief, for the law officer was not uufrequeutly bribed to spare tho roal culprit, while the poorer and more innocent were considered flt
subjects for the gallows. In 1748 these abominable jurisdictions were totally abolished; and no sooner were men emancipated from their
fetters than they begau to improve their properties ; and sinco that time tho face and condition of this country has undergone the happiest
change. The ancient inhabitants of the Highlauds of Argyleshirc prided themselves on their endurance of hunger aud fatigue ; they were
passionately fond of music aud poetry, aud the song aud dauce soon made them forget their toils. Now the sound of the bagpipe is more
rarely heard ; the taste for poetry has disappeared; the deer have abandoned the mountains, and extensive forests are either converted
iuto sheep walks, or have succumbed to modern cultivation.
Soil, Surface, Produce, Climate, &c. — The surface of this county is, like most other parts of the Highlands, mountainous, bleak'
aud uncomfortable to the view; hills, rocks, and huge mountains rise upon each other iu stupendous aud fearful disorder. Gloncroe aud
Glencoe are, perhaps, amongst the most awfully picturesque valleys that can bo contemplated. The coast is rocky, but indented with
navigable bays and islets, which afford good harbours for shipping. From the nature of the county, agriculture is not widespread, but in
certain districts in Lorne, near Campbeltown, and in Islay, farming is favourably pursued. Tho staple corn crop is oats and barley ; rye,
beans and peas being likewise grown, as are also large quantities of excellent potatoes. The mountains food immense numbers of sheep,
aud the cattle bred aro of the hardy Highland type aud reared for exportation to the Lowland markets. Limestone is abundant, and
granite is occasionally met with, whilst near Campbeltown is worked a remarkably productive seam of coal. Lead is wrought iu Islay,
but the chief mineral is slate, of which there are several quarries, the most extensive being at Ballachulish, aud in Easdale, Seil aud
Luing islands. In the beginning of the eighteenth century, much of the natural wood was cut up and sold by the proprietors, at prices
by no means proportionate to the injury perpretrated on the face of the couutry; despoiling it of one of its most interesting features,
and finding the introduction of modern plantations but a meagre substitute for the noble forest tree. The comity altogether abounds
more in romantic scenes than fertile plains aud wood-clad hills. The number of acres iu tillage bears an iusigniiicant proportion to those
occupied by pasture, wood, bills, lakes and rivers. The Climate of the lower parts of Argyleshire is mild aud temperate, but in the
upper inland districts the atmosphere is severe. On the tops of many of the hills the suow often lies for months, chilling tho air and
giving the country a cheerless wintry aspect, even in tolerably mild opon wuathor. Iu the sinuosities of the valleys the air is of a mora
Eland nature, these places boiug protected from the north aud north-west winds, and having generally a southerly exposure. Tho
central districts are more subject to rains than the coast, from the proximity of high bills, whose summits attract and break the
clouds from the Atlantic. The most considerable elevations in Argyleshire are :— B3iuiuturk, 2,170 ; Sliagaoil, 2,2:48; Beneaton,
2,306; Scur Choiuice, 2,361; Beinima, 2,389; Creach Buin, 2,439; Paps of Jura, 2,476; Ueunahua, 2,515 ; Buchael Etivo, 2,537 ; Bon-
reisipoll, 2,661 ; Benanamhrau, 2,720; Scur Dhonuil, 2,730; Bein-Moro, 8,185 ; Cruachlassa, 3,0J0; aud Cruachau, 3,670 feet, respectively
above the sea.
'Un The Manufactures of Argyleshire are yet in so feeble a state as to be scarcely worthy of notice. The principal article made on a
large scale for exportation is whisky, which is of a remarkably line quality. Campbeltown alone boasts about twenty distilleries, aud
there are others in several parls of the county, for which Glasgow is the depot. Among the other brauches of industry may be named
net aud rope makiug, aud the manufacture of woollen cloth aud gunpowder, for which latter there are several extensive works. From
the peculiar form and watery intersection of this county, tho communication between its insular aud mainland portions has been
greatly facilitated by steam power navigation ; and now a very considerable number of steam vessels are constantly employed convoying
passengers aud goods to and fro throughout the couuty, aud iu transporting produce to Glasgow. There is not, at the present day,
a bay, a loch, or inlet, but holds a daily or commands a weekly commuuication with the Lowlands, and the several districts of the
couutry. By this meaus the farmers are encouraged to fatten stock which they would never otherwise tbiuk of rearing. Steam boats
are, in short, the lively cauie of every kind of inrproveuient in this couuty, aod iu agriculture, changes are yearly witnessed in the
different districts, from the modern improvements in husbandry.
Rivers, Lakes, and Railways. —The couuty is well watered by rivers (not considerable), brooks and lochs, which ahouud with fish.
Loch Fyne is celebrated as furnishing the best herrings of any found on the coast of Scotland, and it was estimated that there wore caught
in this arm of the sea from twenty to thirty thousand barrels annually ; but the " take " has greatly fallen off in later years, the herring
having deserted the loch, which has caused the fishing centre to be removed from Tarhert to Campbeltown. Loch Awe (pronounced
Loch O), is a beautiful fresh water lake, about twenty-eight miles long and from one to two broad, reckoned tho mo3t picturesque lake of
any in the Highlauds, and possesses many lovely woody islets, among which are seen the ruins of several old castles. Its waters, which
abound with salmon, trout, and eel, discharge themselves iuto Loch Etive, a branch of the Atlantic Ocean, at Bonaw Ferry. Thero are
many smaller lochs, some of them situated amidst grand and mountainous scenery. The only line of railway in this couuty is the
Callander and Oban line, which was opened through to Oban on the 1st July, 1880.
Ecclesiastical Divisions, Representation, &o.— This extensive county is divided, ecclesiastically, into not more than fifty
parishes, which contain only two Royal burghs, Inveraray, at the head of Loch Fyne, aud Campbeltown, in Kiutyre. One member is
returned to Parliament for the county, the present representative beiug ColonelJ. Wingfield Malcolm. The burghs of Campbeltown,
Inveraray, and Oban, in conjunction with Ayr and Irvine, are also represented, the sitting member being John Sinclair, Esq. The
parliamentary constituency for the county was in 1887-88, 9,721. The Duke of Argyll is lord-lieutenant and high sheriff of the county,
and is the proprietor of a largo portion of the shire; and he is the chief of the family of Campbell, a surname which is found over the
whole region, among high aud low. His eldest son, tho Marquis of Lorne, was, on the 21st day of March, 1871, ma'.ried to Princess Louise,
the fourth daughter of Her Majesty the Queen. Tho lordship of Campbell was elevated to the earldom of Argyll in 1457 by James III. ;
to a Marquisato in 1641 by Charles I., and to a Dukedom in 1701 by William III. The valuation of the county for 1887-88 (exclusive of
burghs, railways, and cauals) was £451,036, By the returns made to Government in 1871, the county contained a population of 75,679, and
by those for 1881, 76,468.

ARGYLESHIRE
SLATER'S
APPIN AND BALLACHULISH SOUTH,
WITH ARDGOUR, KINGAIRLOCH, AND THE ISLANDS OF LISMORE, SHUNA, AND THEIR VICINITIES.
APPIN, or as it is more generally called, Port Appin, is a small
village in the united parish of Lismore and Appin, and com-
prised in a district of the latter appellation ; situated on the point
of a small promontory, on the eastern shore of Loch Linnhe, 13
miles N. of Oban, 15 N.w. of Bonaw, 35 H.w. of Inveraray, 136 n.w. of
Edinburgh, and 29 s.w. of Fort William. The parish is of great
extent, chiefly occupied as grazing farms; the village contains
very few houses, and is a mile and a half off Hie main road. About
five miles and a half to the north is Appin House, the sent of the late
R. Dowuie, Esq., of Arjpin ; this mansion is surrounded by some of
the finest timber on the coast. The estate- is at present in the hands
of trustees, the heir being a minor. The parish church, which was'|
built in 1G49, is centrally situated on the Strath of Appin, a little off
the high road, a distanco of two miles from Appin pier ; and there is
a parliamentary church nine miles distant, on the way to Ballachu-
lish South, It is proposed to build a new parish church, and a very
central site has been offered by the Laird of Kenlochlaich. The j
Episcopal church, Portnacroish, stands a short distance from Rose |
place, on n lovely site, and in its churchyard rest the remains of the '
the Stewarts of Fasnacloich. The Free church, built in 1816, is a1
neat little building situated on the south side of the beautiful buy!
running in past the Castle of Stalker up to Kinlochlaich, which is in
the centre of the much admired Strath. The new Strath public
school is an imposing structure, and by its situation surveys almost
tbo whole Strath. On a small island near Portnacroish, full two
miles north, is the ancient and partly dilapidated castle of Stalker.
It is nearly square, of considerable height, and has evidently been a
place of some strengtli ; and i hough its area is not extensive, it I
occupies almost a moiety of the little islet on which it stands.
About half a mile from the pier, situated in a park on the road to
Shian, is Airds House, the residence of Robert H'Fic, Esq., of Airds
and Oban, which commands a fine view of the head of Airds Bay.
Beyond this, at a distanco of a quarter of a mile, is Drumneil
House, belonging^ Dr. Laurie; it is an ornamental building, of which
a good view is presented as the stranger enters Appin on board the
bteamer from Oban. There are also several other elegant mansions,
among which may be named Barriemoro House, the residence of
Mrs. Campbell ; Achnacone House, that of Alexander Stewart, Esq.,
and Kenlochlaich House, D. H. Campbell-Munro, Esq. There is a
pier here where steamers call regularly. The district is principally
devoted to agriculture and sheep farming. Fairs are held "at Connel
on Saturday before the last Wednesday in May, and on Thursday
before the last Wednesday in October, and at Corran of Ardgouu
on third Friday in October. At Duror Inn, five miles from Ballachu-
lish, on the Appin road, a cattle market is held twice yearly.
Population of the quoad sacra parish in 1881, 762.
Ballachulish South is a straggling but populous village, on the
south shore of Loch Leven, about 3 miles E. of Ballachulish Ferry
(in the same parish), and 15?^ n. of Port Appin. On a small island
opposite the village of Ballachulish are the ruins of an old chapel,
supposed to have been built by St. Mango. The island is now used
as a burying ground. Glencoe is a wild and picturesque mountain
pass, on the road from Ballachulish to Dumbarton, and is historic-
ally celebrated as being the spot where the massacre of the Mac-
donalds took place in 1691. There are Established, Episcopal and
Free churches here, and also a post office. Near the village of
Ballachulish, at the foot of Glencoe hills, are very extensive slate
quarries, the property of Lady Beresford and others, of Ballachulish,
which give employment to a number of the inhabitants. Within a
mile of tlie quarries westward is an Episcopalian church, the largest
in the Highlands, and a small one for the Established Church of
Scotland, also oue for Roman Catholics. The quoad sacra parish
contained in 1881 a population of 1,444 persons.
At Ballachulish South Fkrry is a comfortable hotel and posting
house, a commodious and handsome building, pleasantly situated.
About three-quarters of a mile distant, a pier, with waiting room,
ifcc., has been erected; hero the steamers call, and a conveyance
from the hotel awaits their arrival. A sub-post office is also here.
In the immediate vicinity, at the entrance of a sequestered valley,
is Ballachulish House, the property of Lady Beresford ; tbreo miles
from which is Ardshcal, the seat of Alexander D. Anderson, Esq.
About a mile above the quarries, on the margin of Loch Leven,
near tbo opening of a glen exceedingly wild and romantic, and
almost embosomed by trees, is Invercoe House, and opposite, on
the north shore of the Loch (which is hero fully a mile broad), in
the county cf Inverness, is Callart, the modern mansion of the late
Sir Duncan Cameron, Bart., of Fassifern and Callart, contributing
in an eminent degree to the beauty of the landscape.
At Corran Ferry, where Loch Linnhe narrows to a quarter of a
mile in breadth, a lighthouse has been erected. Ben Nevis is dis-
tinctly seen from here, and to the right there is a magnificent view
of Glencoe. »
Lismore is an island in Loch Linnhe, 10 miles iu length by about
2 in breadth ; it lies between Appin and Morven, and belongs to the
same united parish with the former place. Great quantities of
excellent lime, as well as oats and potatoes, are exported from
hence. The church is situatod at the Clachan of Lismore, and is
distant from the north point of the island about 3 miles. There is
a United Presbyterian church about a mile and a half from Achna-
croish, and at Bachuil is a Baptist chapel. There are public
schools at Baligrundle and Baligarve. There is a small village
on this isolated fertile spot called Port Ramsay; and at a southern
point on a ridge of rocks projecting some distance into the channel,
stands a lighthouse, almost in a direct lino between Oban and the
sound of Mull ; tho light, a catoptric, is on a high rounded pillar of
stone masonry, and is an excellent and most useful beacon. A pier
has been erected at Auchnacroish, at which the mail steamer calls
twice daily. On this island are the remains of Douno or Auchin-
doune Castle, at one time the residence of the bishops of Argyll, the
ruins of a Danish fort, and three fresh water lakes, in which there
is a good supply of salmon, trout, &c. The principal industries are
farming and fishing. Population in 1881, 738.

BONAW, TAYNUILT, ARDCHATTAN, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
BONAW, or Bunawe, is a small scattered village on tbe river Awe,
122 miles n.w. of Edinburgh, 80 n.w. of Glasgow, 12 e. of Obau,
and 20 N. of Inveraray, by Port Sonachan ferry— but round the head
of Loch Awe, by Dalmally, avoiding the terry, it is 32 miles. The
manufacture of pig-iron, which at one time flourished here, has now
ceased. Bonaw granite quarries, leased by Messrs. Wm. Sim & Co.,
Glasgow, employ about 2U0 workmen. Bonaw is much celebrated for
its salmon fishery, which allords employment to a cousidcrable num-
ber of persons in the fishing season. Largo quantities of fish are
sent fresh in boxes to Glasgow aud other parts of Scotlaud. Tho
church, which was erected in 1S27-8, stands near the road to
Inveraray, whevoalsois the parish schoul. The fuuds for both these
structures were supplied by the munificence of General D. Campbell,
of Lochuell. A rude block of granite, tho first mouumont erected in
Britain to tho memory of LordNelsou, may be seen on an ominence
near the village. Since the completion of the Callander and Oban
railway, Bouaw is becoming a favourite resort for tourists, several
new villas having been built. Thero is an hotel uoar to Tayuuilt
station, aud anglers can obtain iisbiug in the famous salmon river
Awe.
At Ardchattan, about four miles n.w. on tbe opposite side of Loch
Etivo, stand the remains of an aucieut priory of the Beuedictiues,

founded iu 1232, by M'C'oull, ancestor of tho Lords of Lome. Here
Bruce is thought to have held a Gaelic council after tho battle of
Methven. A church was erected at Ardchattau in 1836, at an
expense to the heritors of about j£l,000; it coutains sittings for
four huu'lred. Tho objects that most forcibly strike the atteutiou
here are Loch Etive and Beu Cruachau — the latter, with its broad
shoulders, rearing its blunt-pointed summit 3,670 feet above the salt
water that laves his foot. Its circumference at the baso is twenty
miles. Tho journey is somewhat fatiguing, but tho view obtained
from the summit will amply reward the tourist for tbe trouble of
ascending, as ic extends over the whole archipeligo of tho Westorn
Isles from Islay to Skye ; previous to rain and other changes of
weather, souuds are said to issue from Beu Cruachau. The popula-
tion of the quoad-sacra parish of Ardchattau was in 1881, 1,390.
Two miles e. of Taynuilt, where a stone bridge crosses the river-
Awe, is tbe scene of Sir Walter Scott's talc of tho " Highland Widow,"

SLATER'S
CAMPBELTOWN,
WITH SALT-PANS, SADDELL, CARRADALE AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
(CAMPBELTOWN is a royal burgh and seaport, 144 miles w. by s,
j of Edinburgh, ami 100 s. w. of Glasgow, by sea, but by land the
distance to cither city is greater by 3G miles ; 76 s.s.w. of Inverary,
S7 s. of Tarbert, 10 n. of Southern!, and C e. of Salt- Pans, beautifully
situated oua fine bay or inlet of the sea. It is a place of great antiquity,
having been aiojal residence so early as the fifth century, at which
period, Fergus, the first king of Scotland, fixed his residence here,
and it 'continued tho scat of his successors till 813. It was then
called Dalruhadhain, and a place on the north side of the present
town is still known by the name, now written Dalaruam ; but tho
appellation formerly applied to the site of modern Campbeltown
was Ccann Lack (i.e. "head of the Loch"), by which name the country
people still designate the town in Gaelic; the present name was
given to it in honour of the Duke of Argyll, when it was made a
royal burgh in 1701. The town is sheltered on tho north and south
sides by lofty mountains, and has ono of tho safest harbours in the
Western Highlands, possessing a depth from three to fifteen fathoms
at low water! The haven is spacious, being nearly two miles iu length
by one in breadth, and protected at its mouth by the Isle of Davaar,
which is joined to the main land on tho south side by a bar of sand,
visible at low water, nearly half a mile long— the entrance to the bay
being from the north. A lighthouse was erected in 1854, on the above
island which is far more efficient than the old one formerly on the shore.
On opening into the bay, tho stranger's attention is arrested by the
grand though wild scenery, particularly on the south side ; and the
prospect immediately comprises the neat local capital, Campbeltown,
situate at the bead of Loch'Kilkerrau. Thepublic buildings arc seem
towering above tho dwelling houses, beyond which the eye is carried
for some distance over a line, fertile, yet mountainous country.
From the shore, two quays project into tho bay, so as to allow vessels
to load and unload at low water. The principal one, appropi iated to
tho convenience of Bteam boats and heavy vessels, was much im-
proved in 1836, and it has since been lengthened and other alterations
made. It is almost on a line with Main street. The other stretches
from Shore street, and there is a third quay on tho opposite side of
the loch adjoining that part of the town called Daliutober.
Campbeltown formerly derived great advantage from the herring
fishery, for which it was particularly famed, but since the withdrawal
of the 'bounty it has somewhat decayed, few vessels being now
engaged in the trade. The staple industry at the present time is
distilling whisky, and in this branch twenty firms are engaged,
producing an article perhaps inferior to none in the kingdom, chiefly
for the Glasgow and English houses. Next in consequence, and
niainlv if not entirely, dependent for its prosperity on the last-named
branch' is malting. Agriculture of late years has risen into great
importance. Some of the finest and richest land in this part of
Scotland lies to the north and west of the town, and is chiefly tho
property of tho Duke of Argyll and Hector Macncal, Esq. A wuollen
manufactory, a colliery, a net manufactory, a rope walk, &c. add to the
business importance of the place, whilst its neighbourhood abounds
with lime, stone, &o. for building and other purposes. Few towns of
tho size of Campbeltown possess equal commercial advantages. The
County Building, situate on Castlehill, is a fiue stone building in
the baronial style. It contains a justice of the peace court, sheriffs
court and tho fiscal's offices. It was opened June 1st, 1871, by
James Gardiner, Esq., the old sheriff's court, &c. in Bolgam
street being now converted into a Conservative club room and
police' station. There is also the custom house, an extensive
excise establishment, and branches of the Commercial Bank
of Scotland, Limited, the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, the; Royal
Bank of .Scotland, and the Bank of Scotland, of which two
are situated in Main street, and two in Longrow, besides a
bank for savings in Bolgam street, which was established in 1827,
under the provisions of the Ant 59 George III. cap. 62. Steam vessels
sail regularly to Glasgow, Greenock, and Ayr, aud occasionally to the
adjacent coast towns, aud to Belfast, &c. in Ireland ; and numerous
coastiu" vessels, freighted to Liverpool aud other parts of the country.
The principal exports are whisky, wool, herrings, fishing nets, live
stock coals, potatoes, &c. The imports are barley, timber, grain,
yeast' groceries, ironmongery, &C Campbeltown is connected by
telegraph with the principal towns and villages in the county, as
well as with Glasgow, &c. The municipal government of the town
is vested in a provost, two bailies, a dean of guild and twelve coun-
cillors, and combined with Ayr, Inveraray, Irvine and Oban, returns
one member to the Imperial Parliament— the gentleman at present
sitting being John Sinclair, Esq. The town is lighted by gas, and
tho inhabitants are well supplied with water by pipes conducted
from Lochruan and Crossbill into tho principal streets. The Town
Hall, a convenient building, ornamented by a handsome spire,
contains a council chamber, and nn assembly and other rooms
Campbeltown is the bead-quarters of tho Argyll and Bute Artillery
Militia, and a large and efficient staff are hero permanently stationed ;
in the town are also an Artillery Volunteer Battery and a Rifle
Volunteer Corps. For the latter a large drill hall, called the
" Victoria Hall" in honour of Her Majesty's Jubilee, was erected in
1887, on part of the site of tho old bowling green in Bolgam street,
having a frontage to Kinloch road of about 70 feet. In the front on
the ground floor is a reading room aud orderly room, each 22% feet
by 14 feet. Above this is the dwelling-house of the drill instructor.
The hall itself, is 110 feet long by 60 fort broad, having a gallery
extending across it 15 feet in breadth. Behind the hall are two
waitiug rooms for ladies and gentlemen, 11 feet by 10 feet. The style
of the building is armorial, the architect being Mr. H. E. Clifford, of
Glasgow. The contracts for the work were undertaken by local
tradesmen. Funds for the erection of the hall were obtained by a
bazaar held in the Town Hall, at which a sum of £1,014 was raised.
Placks of Worship, Schools, Ac— The Castlehill church, so
called from its occupying the site of the ancient royal castle, was
erected in 1781. The Gaelic church, so named from tho language in
which the service is rendered, was built in ly07, and a beautiful
stone spire added in 1836. The United Presbyterian church was
erected in 1767, and is ornamented with a handsome aud substantial
stone tower, in the Gothic style, raised in 1334. It was re-orected in
1871, and is now a spleudid building in the Italian style of architec-
ture, with a large stone tower 150 feet from the ground. The
Episcopal church, situited in Argyle street, opened also in 1834, was
at first occupied as a Secession church, and afterwards as a branch
of the Scotch Episcopal church. There are two Free churches, ono
in Iiocheud, a beautiful stone edifice, and the other in Lome street.
The Roman Catholic chapel, opened iu 1849, is a neat structure,
with carved stone front aud pinnacles, which give it a rather impos-
ing appearance. There are two schools of industry for girls, and
the Daliutober boys' and girls' schools, eodowed by a Miss Lucy
Campbell, iu 1843 ; also Board and Roman Catholic schools.
The most remarkable piece of antiquity is an ancient cross, erected
in the middle of the main street. The inscription is iu the Saxon
character, and the following is a literal copy, with the translation
annexed—
Haec est : crnx : Domini : YVARI : M : H :
EACHYRNA. quondam: Rectoris de KYREGAN.
et: Domini: ANDRE: nati; ejus: Rectoris do
KIL : COMAN : qui banc cruceni fieri faciebat:
'•This is the cross of Mr. Edward M. H, Eachrau,
once Rector of Cryegau, and Master Andrew his son,
Rector of Kilcoman, who erected this cross."
There is, however, no date, but it is said to have been executed
about tho twelfth century, and to have been brought from the Isle
of Ioua. South of the town is the high mountain called Bengoelion,
from which there is an extensive view of the surrounding country,
including tho distant objects of Avrau and Pladda islands, Cowan
hills, tho bay and heads of Ayr, the Lowlands as far as Loch Ryan,
the Craig of Ailsa, Black Head at the entrance of Belfast Lough,
Donuavertic, Sanda Isles, part of the Irish coast near the points of
Garron Head, Red Bay and Fair Head, the dangerous bay of
Machrihanish, the Mull of Islay and the Paps of Jura; also tho
cemetery at Kilkerrau, with the points of Saddell, Carradell, aud
Skipness. The north and south shores of Campbeltown are both
pleasant and healthy. The market is held on Friday, and the fairs
on the first Thursday in February, for horses; the second and last
Wednesday in May, for horses and cattle ; the Wednesday before tho
third Tuesday in August, for sheep and Iambs; aud on'the second
Thursday iu the same month for horses; the Friday beforo Kil-
michael market in October, for cattle; and the third Thursday in
November, for horses. Population of Campbeltown iu 1871, 6,688,
and in 1881, 7,693.
Salt-Pans, so called from salt having been made here from salt
water, is a small village, six miles w. of Campbeltown, on the
southern shore of Machrihanish bay, the dashing of whoso waves
can be heard at a great distance ; and the continual heavy swell
here, caused by the Atlantic rolling in between Islay and the
northern coast of Ireland, is justly dreaded by the mariner. Nearly
half a mile south is Lnsset House, the tasteful and modern mansion
of Hector Macuoal, Esq. of Ugadalc. At Druralemblo, about four
miles from Campbeltown, are tho works of the Argyll colliery, which
are connected with Campbeltown by a narrow gaugo railway. Hero
is also a Board schoul.
Saddell and .Skipness form an united parish, with an area of
46,872 acres, situated at the inner extremity of the peninsula of
Kiutyre, tho village of Saddell being about 10 miles north of Camp-
beltown. It contains the ancient castle of Somerled, the great
chieftain and founder of the clan Macdonald ; aud the ruins of a
monastery of the Cistercian order, founded by Somerled in 1160.
Saddell is now the residence of Colonel John N. M'Leod, whose
mansion stands in a good situation in the centre of this fine glen.
The ancient castle, which is still entire, and tho ruins of the monas-
tery, in which is the cemetery of the ancient Macdonald family,
are well worthy of being visited by tho curious. Population of the
joint parishes in 1871, 1,153, and in lf81, 1,163.
At Carradale, a village in the above parish, and 5 miles north of
Saddell, a pier has been erected, where the steamer calls on its
voyage to and from Glasgow aud Campbeltown. A sub-post office
aud a Board school are iu the village.

CLACHAN, TAYINLOAN, KILLEAN, GLENBABR, BALLACHANTUIE,
AND KILKENZIE,
WITH THE ISLANDS OF GIGHA, CARA, AND THEIR VICINITIES.
('LACHAN is a village in the parish of Killoalmonell, situate in a fine
J valley on tho banks of a small stream, over which is a good stone
bridge, and on the road from Tarbert to Campbeltown, 11 miles s.of
the former, and 26 n. of the latter place. In tho village is the parish
church, a chapel in which Free Church service is held, and a Board
school ; and a littlo to the east is the residence of William M'Kiuuon,
Esq., of Balinakill, who is proprietor of tho village, and who has
effected considerable improvmeuts. In the vicinity, to the north-
west, is a vitrified fort on a largo scale, and another contiguous forti-
fication in ruins ; and among tho hills to tho cast are several fresh
water lochs, well stored with trout. Eight miles south, on the same
road, and near tho const is
Tayinloan, a small village in tho parish of Killean, about 19 miles n.
from Campbeltown ; and about a mile in a northern direction is Largie
Castle, the residence of Mrs. M'Donald, and opposite the village,
hut separated from the mainland by a sound about four miles broad,
is the island of
GiGHA, which ia nrar'y six miles hug, and from two to three miles
broad, and is the property of Col. J. \V. Scarlett, of Achamore House.
An Established church and a Board school are on tho island.
Cara is a neighbouring island, and is about one mile in length.
Killean is about one mile s. of Tayiuloan. Near the road stands the
parish church, a small neat stone building, erected in 1787, and the
parochial school ; and about a quarter of a mile further, on an emin-
ence, is a handsome Free church, with a tower, erected in 1846, and
situate clrse by is a Board school. Seals arc very often seen lying on
the rocks near tho coast. Population in 1881 of tho quoad sacra
parish, 1,368.
Nearly 3 miles s of Killean and 12 N. of Campbeltown, is the village of
Glenbauk, situato on the banks of the Barr water which is well
stocked with fine salmon and trout; aud nearly a mile from tho
shore, in a rich and well cultivated glen, is Barr House, the property
of Major Macalister, a fine structure, built iu the Gothic style, and
from its site an extensive view of the sea and north-east coast of
Ireland may ho obtained.
Three miles s. of Glenbarr and Q}^ n.w. of Campbeltown, on the
main road near the shore, is
Ballachantuie, a village in tho united parish of Killean and
Kilkenzio, containing a email chnreh, erected in 1825, and a Board
school. The road between this village and Campbeltown has been
much improved of lute years, and a new road several miles iu length
was cut along tho shore, at a great expense, toavold the Hills on tho
old road. The chief employment of the people on this coast is fish-
iDg and agriculture.

DUNOON,
WITH THE VILLAGES OF KIRN, INNELLAN, 3LENLEAN, SANDBANK, HUNTER'S QUAY, TOWARD, GLENDARUEL,
MILLHOUSE, TIGH-NA-BRUAICH, COLINTRAIVE, AND THE PARISHES OF INVERCHAOLAIN, KILFINAN,
KILMODAN, AND KILMORICH.
DUNOON and KILMUN is a parish lying on the western shore of
the Frith of Clyde. The town of Dunoon, a thriving little one,
is the principal place in the district of Cowal, and was created, along
with Kirn aud Hunter's Quay, u borough in 18158. It is ^7 miles s.s.e.
of Inveraray, 21 s.s.w. of Strachur,7s.of Kilniun,74 w. of Edinburgh,
30 w. of Glasgow, 10 n. of Rothesay, 8 w. of Greenock, and 4 w. of
Gourock. ItH prosperity may be mainly ascribed to the pleasant
site it occupies, having in front the famed Frith of Clyde, always
studded with numerous sailing and steam vessels. Tko town extends
over considerable space along the shore. For u distance of two miles
in botli directions there are several ranges of genteel-looking and
well-Iurnishod bouses for the accommodation of families who resort
hither in the summer season fur sea-bathing. Intermixed with the
lodging bouses are many tasteful villas, chiefiy occupied by the mer-
chants and professional gentlemen of Gbisgow, t&c., for country
retirement. There ate also several good hotels.
It is only since tne year 1821 that Dunoon has become a place of
resort for sea-bathing. At that time there were only three slated
houses in the place, and the population did not number anove 100.
In 1835 a wooden pier was constructed, 800 feet long and 12 broad,
with a projection nearly at right angles with the end, 00 feet long
and 20 broad. This substantial and convenient work coat. £1,50W. A
new pier was opened in or about 1860, at a cost of £8,0i)0, and a
Jurthcr sum of £1,000 was expended on it in 1881. About a mile
distant, at Kirn, is another pier, similarly constructed; and two
miles north-east is Hunter's Quay, a good stone building, with a
projection and slip, erected in 1828. Here is the Royal Clyde Yacht
Club House, in connection with which is an annual regatta on the
Clyde. Nearly a mile further, at the entrance of Holy Loch, on its
southern shore, is Hafton House, an elegant mansion, occupying a
pleasant and picturesque situation, amid thriving plantations and
tastefully arranged pleasure grounds. A little to the weBt of the pier
at Dunoon is a cone shaped green mound, about 80 feet in height,
with the ruins of a castle on its summit. This castle was formerly
regarded as one of the most formidable strongholds on the coast of
Argylesbire, and has been the scene of many stirring events and
feudal conflicts. Dunoon is not without its share in the history of
Queen Mary, who visited her sister, Lady Jane Stuart, at Dunoon
Castle, about 15f8.
The parish church was built in 1816, and considerably enlarged in
1835, and contains at present nearly 900 sittings ; it is a Gothic edi-
fice, with a square tower, and stands on the most elevated point of
Dunoon. It is said that there was once a nunnery on its site. The
graves of Bishop Boyd and M'Lean are to be seen in the burial
ground of the church, covered with massive freestone slabs, having
upon them armorial bearings and inscriptions, which are, however,
nearly obliterated. A chapel of ease to Dunoon was erected near
Toward Lighthouse, 7 miles s.w., in 1836-7, by subscription ; it is a
neat Gothic structure, containing 200 sittings, and cost £400. In
1828, a United Presbyterian church waB erected iu Argyll street,
with 300 sittings; but this being found insufficient, a new one was
built at a short distance from the old one, in 1874, at a cqst of about
9— S-A-N
£8,000. The old church is now used for services in the Gaolic and
English tongue. The foundation stone of a new Free church was
laid in July, 1876, by Alexander Stephen, Esq., ofjFearamiCoillie ; it
is built of stone, in the French Gothic style of architecture, and cost
upwards of £13,000. Mr. Robert A. Bryden, Glasgow, was the archi-
tect. A Scotch Episcopal church, and an English Episcopal chmch,
also chapelB each for Baptists and Roman Catholics — all neat build-
ings—are the other places of worship in the town and immediate
neighbourhood. There are also several public and private boarding
aud day schools. The police station is a neat stone building in the
early Scotch style of architecture. Two churches, one for the Estab-
lishment, and the other for the United Presbyterians, are situated at
Kirn. A short distance on the road from Dunoon to Sandbank, is
the West of Scotland Convalescent Sea-side Homes. This institu-
tion, originated and promoted by the late Miss Beatrice Clugston, of
Glasgow, was opened on the 14th of August, 1S69, for the purpose of
affording sea-air, bathing, &cM to those invalids whose circumstances
prevent them fromregaininginanyother way the health and strength
necessary to resume their work. The building is a magnificent stone
erection in tho Romanesque style of architecture. It was originally
intended for a hydropathic establishment on an extensive scale, and
cost about £12,000, and is capable of accommodating over 200 in-
mates. Tho Burgh Hall, Argyll street, built in 1873, is well worthy
of mention. It is a handsome stone building, and contains a fine
assembly room, which is sometimes occupied by London and pro-
vincial dramatic companies, &c. A sheriff and small debts court is
held here every six weeks. Fairs are held at Dunoon on the third
Thursday in January and February. There are four weekly news-
papers published in the neighbourhood, the Dunoon Herald and
Dunoon Telegraph, at Dunoon, and the Argyllshire Standard and
Dunoon Observer, at Sandbank. The population of the united parishes
of Dunoon and Kilmun was in 1881, 8,002, of which the town of
Dunoon contained 4.092.
Innellan is a thriving and respectable village, 4 miles w. of
Dunoon, on the shore of the Frith of Clyde. The bouses are mostly
of a first-class order, and the grouuds adjoining being tastefully laid
out, give them a neat appearance, many being the summer resi-
dences of the Glasgow merchants. There are an Established church,
a Free church, an Episcopalian, and a United Presbyterian church,
and a good school. The Royal Hotel, which deserves particular
notice, is built on an elevated site; its dimensions are large and
imposing. In front, is the pier, at. which steamers to and from
Glasgow, Greenock and Wemyss Bay call several times a day. A
few miles further on 13 Castle Toward, a massive modern edifice,
erected by the late Kirkman Fin I ay, Esq., and now the residenco of
Colin C. Finlay, Esq. The grounds contain the ruins of the ancient
castle, at one time tho seat of thu family of Lamont of Ardlamont.
Population in 1881, 859.

from 6 to 7 miles n.w. therefrom.

ARGYLESHIRE
SLATER'S
EASDALE AND LUING,
SHUNA, TORSAY, BELNAHUA & FLADDA ISLANDS, WITH MELFORT, KILNINVER, KILMELFORT, & NEIGHBOUROODS.
EASDALE is a village partly situated on the island of that name,
and partly on the island of Seil, from which it is separated by a
narrow sound ; and in the united parish of Kilbrandon and Kit,-
chattan. It is 16 miles s.w. by s. of Oban, 80 n.n.w. of Loch-
gilphead, 40 w. of Inveraray, and 142 w.of Edinburgh. It is chiefly
remarkable for its slate quarries, which are said to have been open
for three centuries ; they are the property of the Marquis of Bread-
albane, and are wrought by the Easdale Slate Company, who
altogether employ about 250 men, and produce about 15,000 tons of
slate annually, of a superior quality, which is exported to all parts of
Scotland and the North of England. Several of the quarries,
which are now above two hundred and fifty feet below the sea,
are kept dry by pumping with Bteam engines. The geological
formation of the slate rock here is similar, as to stratification and
cleavage, to the Welsh rock ; and the island of Eaedale, which is
nearly a mile in circumference, is entirely formed of this rock, except
a few trap dykes which here and there intersect it. Thero is a good
quay for shipping the Blate, and safe anchorage in the sound, through
which the Glasgow steam boats pass almost daily to and from the
north. A new pier was erected in 1873, at which the steamers call
regnlnrly. Ardmaddy Caetle, an ancient seat of the Breadalbaue
family, about two miles east of Easdale, is situated on a fine pleasant
bay; the grounds are well wooded and contain several pretty
cascades. A marble quarry was wrought near the castle about a
century ago. Lead mines have been worked in the island of Luing ;
and there are several caves in Kilbride well worth visiting. At
Toberonachy, slate quarries were opened about five years ago, by the
lessees, Messrs. J. & A. M'Lean. There is good quay accommodation,
and vessels can be loaded at almost any state of the tide. In 1881
the village had a population of 460.
Belnahua, IT small island to the north of Scarba, contains several
quarries of excellent blue slate, at present wrought by Messrs. J. &
H. Shaw & Co, The number of men generally employed is about
sixty. Population in 1881, 108.
Shuna is a small island lying off the coast of Nether Lorn, in
Kilbrandon parish, situated 14 miles s.sw. of Oban. Fladda,
Luing, and Torsay are also small islands in the above parish.
Melfort is a village, pleasantly situated at the head of Loch
Melfort, a mile off the main road, and in the nnited parish of Kil-
ninver and Kilmelfort. It is about eight miles s.e. of Easdale,
and 15% s.s.w. of Oban. The manufacture of gunpowder was carried
on in the village, eight mills being employed for that purpose ; but
on the property changing hands the powder works were closed.
There is a convenient quay for the use of shipping, and in the
village is a public school under the charge of the Kilniuver and
Kilmelfort School Board.
Kilninver and Kilmelfort form a united parish in Lorn district,
lying on the west coast to the south of Kilmore. The Kilmelfort part
of the parish lies south of Kilninver. There are public schools at
both the above places, and a church of the Establishment at Kil-
ninver. Population in 1881, 405.

DIRECTORY
ARGYLLSHIRE
INVERARAY,
WITH FURNACE, CAIRNDOW, CLADICH, DALMALLY, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
INERVARAY is a royal burgh, and the county town of Argyleshire,
102 miles w. by n. of Edinburgh, 60 n.w. of Glasgow, 82 s.e. of
Oban, by Port Sonachan Ferry, and 42 by Dalinally, avoiding the
Ferry, 20 s.e. ofBonaw by the before-mentioned ferry, but 82 by
the coach road and Dalmally, 24 n.e. of Lochgilphead, and 76
N.n.e. of Campbeltown. It is delightfully situated on the north-
western shore of Loch Fyne, on apoiut of land (Ardreanich, or the
Fern Point), forming a southern point of a fine bay, which receives
the waters of the Aray and the Shira. Over the first is an elegant
stone bridge of two arches, within half a mile of the town ; the
second is about a mile and a half east, and is crossed by a bridge
of one arch. From the former of these streams the town derives
its name, "Inver" signifying the mouth, from its proximity to the
mouth of the Aray. A short distance from the town, at the extremity
of the bay, stands Inveraray Castle, the princely residence of the Duke
of Argyll, The architecture of this mansion is highly finished
Gothic, with turrets at the angles, and its site is particularly
beautiful and commanding. From its southern front there is an
expansive view for several miles down Loch Fyne, and of the
adjacent lofty mountains, which are adorned with fine plantations
to their summits. A square pavilion, rising high above its turrets,
supplies light to a gallery (which leads to all the upper chambers),
and a spacious hall, furnished with an elegant organ, and decorated
with the arms used by the Argyllshire militia in 1741, also the
colours of the 93rd Highlanders. Amongst the paintings are those
of the earl who was executed in the reign of Charles II., and also
the marquis who suffered in that of James VT. of Scotland. The
drawing room and some other apartments are lined with rich and
costly tapestry of rare designs ; indeed the whole interior is fitted
and furnished in sumptuous style. The castle also contains two
beautiful pedestals of red granite, or porphyry, of a very rare kind,
discovered by the present duke near the Ross of Mull ; two slabs
were sent to Aberdeen and converted into pedestals, in forming
which it was found to be much superior and to take a higher polish
than either the Peterhead or the Aberdeen granite. The Duke of
Sutherland subsequently procured a considerable quantity for the
internal improvements of Duurobin Castle. On entering the bay,
the castle has a very majestic appearance, and the woods, that
rising for a considerable distance adorn the domain, give the town
an appearance of grandeur. Every stranger is struck with the
neatness of the town, which, though small, is well built. The park
and grounds of the castle present a drive, almost in a direct line, of
about two miles, with several others of great extent, all thrown open
to the public. Upon the lawn is a braBS gun that belonged to the
admiral's ship Florida, one of the " Invincible " armada, blown up in
Tobermory bay in 1588, where she was forced to put in through stress
of weather. The gun, which was taken from the bay, and is about
ten feet in length, is named the '' Gunna-Cam?' or "glen gun," and
is fired on certain occasions.
Loch Fyne terminates about nine miles from the town, and from
the fineness of its scenery and the fame of its herrings, is justly
remarkable. The value of herrings taken out of the loch in a single
season, until within the last twenty or thirty years, frequently
amounted to .£80,000, but of late years it has hardly yielded any, and
the scarcity is supposed to have been the results of trawling. In
prosperous seasons there were at times from three hundred to four
hundred boats employed at once on its waters: The looh is fifty
miles long, and is about ten broad below Loch Gilp, seldom
exceeding three above Otter Ferry. From a convenient part of the
town, and projecting from the Bhore, is a well built quay. In the
town are two branch banks — one of the National Bank of Scotland,
Limited, the other of the Union Bank of Scotland, Limited, and two
good hotels and posting houses. A handsome stone building, nsed
as a coffee and reading room, has been erected at the neck of the
quay, at the cost of upwards of £1,000, in memory of the late
Elizabeth Sutherland, Duchess of Argyll. There is daily communi-
cation with Glasgow throughout the year, by menus of steamers
across Loch Fyne to St. Catherine's, also by MacBrayne's steam
boats, which sail three times a week, and by the " Lord of the
Isles," which sails daily from June to September.
Inverary was erected into a burgh by charter, granted by Charles I.
in 16-18, and its government is vested in a provost, two bailies, a
dean of guild, with eight councillors, a town clerk and a treasurei*.
The burgh unites with Campbeltown and Oban in this county, and
with Ayr and Irvine in Ayrshire, in sending one momber to Parlia-
ment, the present representative being John Sinclair, Esq., Grange-
moutb, Stirlingshire. The court house and gaol, forming a substan-
tial building of stone, is situate on the shore, and has an imposing
appearance when seeu from the loch. lu it a sheriff's Courtis held
every Friday from 15th January to 15th Maruh, from 3rd or 4th April
to 31st July, and from 1st October to 15th December, and quarter
sessions in the first Tuesday in March, May, August, and last Tues-
day in October ; also a borough court occasionally.
On the esplanado may be seen a sculptured stone cross, supposed
to be of the date 1400 ; it is eight feet high, and bears the following
inscription — " Haecest crux nobilinm virorum, vidilicet. Dondcani,
Meic Gyllicliomghan, Patrici lilii ejus, et Maelmore, filii Patrici,
qui banc crucem fieri faciebet." (This is the cross of the
nobles, viz., Duncan M'Comyn, Patrick, his son, and Ludovick the
son of Patrick, who caused this cross to be erected.) The cross was
brought from lona. In a garden near the church is a small obelisk,
which marks the place of execution, in the year 1685, of some per-
sons of the name of Campbell, for preaching against the errors of
the Romish church. A splendid view can bo had of the surrounding
scenery from the top of " Dunquiaich," which was in olden times a
beacon or watch-tower, mentioned in Sir Walter Scott's novel, " The
Legend of Montrose." The places of worship are the Established
church, a neat stone building, surmounted by a spire, situated ia
the main street, and in which service is performed both in Gaelic
and English ; a United Presbyterian church, erected in 1836, on
land given by D. Paterson, Esq. ; a neat Free church, built in 1844,
at the south end of the town ; and an Episcopalian church, a small
stone structure, erected in 1886, at a cost of about £1,600, the site
being given by the Dujie of Argyll. There are also two Board schools
here. About a mile and a half north-east of Inveraray is Glen-
Shira, in length about six miles, the scenery through which is ex-
ceedingly beautiful— presenting gently-sloping hills, whose sides are
clothed with wood and rich meadow land, intersected with winding
stream and lake (Duloch), the whole furnishing a landscape of no
ordinary beauty. Fairs for cattle are held at Inveraray on the last
Friday in May, and the last Thursday in October, and a wool market
on the third Friday in July ; at Glenorchy, on the third Wednesday
in March, and fourth Tuesday in November. Population of the
borough in 1881, 864.
Cairndow is a small village in the parish of Kilmorich, situate
near the head of Loch Fyne, about 11 miles n.e. from Inveraray.
There are an Established church, a Board school, and an hotel,
where tourists will find every comfort, anglers being allowed
frro fishing in the river Kinglas. Here is also the estate of Ardkin-
glas, the property of G. F. W. Callender, Esq.; the house is at present
tenanted by Herbert Stratt, Esq., as a shooting residence.
Cladich is a hamlet on Loch Awe, 10 miles n. of Inveraray,
and in the united parish of Glenorchy and Inishail • a road to the
left leads to Port Sonachan Ferry, three miles distant, crossing Loch
Awe, by which the distance to BonawandObanis shortened 10 miles;
another road from Cladich on the right leads toDalmally, and round
the head of Loch Awe to Oban. Here is a Board school, an Estab-
lished church, and a post office, and near to Port Sonachan is a Free
church.
Dalmally, 16 miles n.e. of Inveraray, is beautifully situated
near the head of Loch Awe, and in view of the vale of Glenorchy.
The parish church is situated on the road to Oban ; a Free church is
also close by, and there is also a Board school. Loch Awe is 26 miles
long and from one to half a mile broad; its most attractive scenery
lies between here and Port Sonachan, the bills on each side being
thickly clothed with timber, several small islands beiu^ interspersed
on its surface. On a rock are the fine old ruins of Kilcuurn castle,
supposed to have been built about 1440, by Sir Colin Campbell, the
first knight of Glenorchy. Since the opening of tho new line to
Oban, in connection with the Callander and Oban railway, a first-
class station has been erected here, and the Dalmally Hotel is situate
within live minutes walk from the station.
At Furnace, about eight miles s. from Inveraray, on the
wostern bank of Loch Fyne, are extensive granite quarries, leased
and wrought by Messrs. William Sim & Co.

ISLAND OF ISLAY,
INCLUDING BOWMORE, BRIDGEND, BRUICHLADDICH, PORT-ASKAIG, PORT-CHARLOTTE,
PORTNAHAVEN, BALLYGRANT, AND THEIR VICINITIES.
PORT-ELLEN, ARDBEG,
ISLAY is a large island, and tho most southerly of those called the
Hebrides. In length from north to south it is about thirty
miles, its extreme breadth about eighteen, and its contents ]
about 154,00 acres. Port-AsUaig, the most northern port on the
island, is distant form Edinburgh (by way of Tarbert) 179 miles, 1
from Inveraray 76, and from Tarbert 40. It lies in a westerly direc-
tion from the peninsular of Cautire, distant from it about 20
miles, and is separated on the north from the Island of Jura by a
narrow channel. It comprises three parochial divisions, namely,
Bowmore (or Kilarrow), Kilchumau and Kildulton. The mountains
to the cast of the island rise to an altitude of 1,500 feet,
and are the resort of eagles, falcons and other birds; and gieat
numbers of seals are to be found along the coast. Tho shoro is
very rugged, but in some parts has line flat beaches and sandy bays,
and the face of the country is finely varied by bill and dale. Many
parts are well planted, aud tho island contains several beautiful
lakes, well-stocked with most delicious trout; there are also two
rivers, the Soru and the Laggau ; the former empties itself into Loch
Indnal, and the latter into Laggan Bay. The Laggau water is not
surpassed in the West Highlands as a salmon stream. In boisterous
■weather many vessels come into Loch Iudaal for shelter. Near the
centre of the island is Loch Finlaugan, about three miles in circum-
ference, with an islet of the same name in the middle. It was
here the Macdonalds (Lords of the Isles), resided in all the
pomp of royalty, aud the ruins of their castlo can yet be seen.
Near the Island of Finlaggan is another little isle, called Eilau-na-
corlle — the island of council— where a body of judges constantly sat
to decide differences between the subjects of the Macdonalds. On
the first island were buried the wives and the children of the Lords
of the Isles, but tbeir own persons were deposited in the more
Bacred ground of Ioua. Before Islay became the seat of government
for the Lords of the Isles, it appears to have been under the
dominion of the Danes and Norwegians, as there are many duns and
castles, evidently of Danish origin, besides many places which have
Danish names. The land is tolerably cultivated, but it is still sus-
ceptible of great improvement. Upwards of three thousand head of
black cattle, and several hundred horses of the Clydesdale breed,
are annually exported, besides sheep. An immense quantity of
whisky, the produce of the distilleries in the island, is also exported
to Glasgow, England and America. Lead and iron are Baid to
abound in this island, and a company was formed, called the Islay
Mining Company, for extracting some of those minerals, which has,
however, suspended operations for tbe present, onaecount of the fall
in the price of lead. There is regular daily communication by
steamer, from Port-Ellen, and on Tuesday and Friday from Port-
Askaig, with Glasgow aud West Tarbert on the main laud. There
are nmuyruiuous remaius of ancient castles, churches, &c, scattered
over the island ; but, perhaps, the most remarkable natural curiosity
in this part of the empire is Sloc-Mhaol-Doraidh,a large basin formed
id the rock by the action of the sea, on the south-west point of Laggau
Bay, about nine miles from Bowmore, into which the turbulent
waters of the western ocean rush, by two channels in the rock,
covered with natural arches ; tbe grandeur of the Bcene presented
during the flowing of the tide is inconceivable. This cave is scarcely
inferior to the famed one of Fingal.iu Statin, and can only be entered
by a boat in line weather. At the entrance stands a perpendicular
rock, fifty feet high, with a belt round it, aud is designated tho
'* soldier," from appearing tn guard the approach to it. The interior is
doom-roofed and spacious, with a beautiful lake of fresh water, "icy
cold and chrystal clear." There are several other interesting per-
forations in different parts of the island. The scenery iu this locality,
as well as several other points, is highly interesting, and occasionally
approaches the sublime. It was on this coast that on tho 27th of
April, 1847, the Exmouth was wrecked, when two hundred aud forty-
eight of the crew and passengers perished. Population of Islay in
1871, 8,143, and in 1881, 7,5215.
Bowmore is the principal place on the island. It was founded iu
1768, and is situated on the east side of Luuh Iudaal, three miles
south of Islay House, 11 s.s.w. from Port-Askaig, and tho
samo from Port-Ellen and Port-Charlotte. The village, which
consists of two principal streets and several smaller ones diverging,
possesses a good quay and a comfortable inn. It in a place of some
business, several trading vessels belonging 10 it. Tim public struc-
tures are tho parish church, a circular edifice, with a poculiai'iy
formed spire; a neat Free church, a Baptist chapel, a union woik-
house, and a building originally iuteuded for a paol, but now
appropriated to tbe more beneficial uses of a public library, cou tain tug
about 1,800 volumes. An assembly room is on the same floor
as the library. There is also a large and excellent public school,
with a house for the master. A sheriff's court is held here twice a
year. There is a distillery worked by Messrs. W. & J. Mutter. The
Bowmore and the Seaview Hotels are the principal in the village.
Population in 1881, 834.
Bruiohladdich is a BmaH village in the parish of Kilchoman,
eight miles from Bowmore, on the road to Port-Charlotte. Here are
a large distillery, a temperance hotel, and post ofhco ; there is also a
quay at which vessels of considerable burden can unload in tine
weather*

ISLAY
SLATER'S
At Bridgend, three miles n. of Bowmore, and eight miles s. of
Port-Askaig, is a branch of the National Bank of Scotland, Limited,
which greatly facilitates the commercial transactions of the island.
A court is held monthly for the recovery of Bmall dehtB, and sessions
for the trial of pott; offences, X short distance to the west
Islay House, surrounded with finegardensand well planted grounds ;
it is situated at the head of Loch Indaal, of which it commands a
fine view, as well as of the adjacent country.
Port-Askaig is a small creek or barbonr, on the north-east side
of the island, opposite Feoline. in Jura, from which it is separated
by the sound of Islay, abouta mile broad. The port is 11 miles
n^e. of Bowmore, and has a quay where vessels of considerable
burden can load and unload at low water. Here lobsters are found
in great abundance.
About four miles from Bridgend, nn the road to Port-Askaig, is
the village of Ballygrant, where there is a lead mine, which when
working gives employment to a number of hands. The lead is of
first-rate quality, and contains a small quantity of silver.
Port-Charlotte is a small village in the parish of Kilchoman,
on the west side of Loch Indaal, nearly opposite to Bowmore ; it is
lb" miles s.w. of Port-Askaig, and contains a good inn, a dis-
tillery, and an excellent school, erected by Charles Morrison, Esq.
Population in 1881, 502.
Port-Ellen is a seaport aud village, in the parish of Kildalton,
on the east side of the Island; it is 11 miles s.e. of Bow-
more and 22 s. of Port-Askaig. In 1824 there stood only one
house here, but in 1836 there were above one hundred and fifty; the
population and habitations have greatly increased siuce then. The
bay is considered safe, and is nearly a mile wide. The quay, a
commodious one, formed on a rocky promontory near the middle
of the harbour, was erected in 1826, and enlarged and im-
proved in 1832, by Campbell of Islay, who also erected a light-
house and was again farther enlarged and improved in 1881, by
Johu Ramsay, Esq., j.p., of Kildalton. Mr. Ramsay became pro-
prietor of the parish of Kildalton (which includes the quoad sacra
parish of Oa), in 1863, and during his proprietorship he has expen-
ded more than half the rental of the parish in agricultural im-
provements, including stone walls and farm steadings of uncommon
stability. A branch of the Royal Bank of Scotland is established
here. The village is substantially built, and contains two inns.
The inhabitants are principally employed iu agriculture and fishing,
and the prosperity of the village may be said to have been increasing
for several years. Population in 1881, 989 ; of Kildalton and Oa,
2,252.
About four miles E.from Port Ellen are the villiages of Lagavu-
lin and Ardbeg. At the latter place is one of the largest dis-
tilleries in the island ; and there is a commodious harbour, with a
quay, at which vessels of 12 feet draught of water can lie and
discharge at ebb tide.
Portnahaven is a small village and seaport, 24 miles s.w.
of Port-Aslmig, aud 16 s.w. of Bridgend. It is at the southern,
extremity of the island, having a quay formed by the rocks on the
shore ; and near the port is a lighthouse, erected in 1824-5. Here
are also a parliamentary church, a Free church, and a public school.
A considerable business is done in the season of fishing, the shores
on this part of the island abounding with the finny treasures.
Population in 1881, 361.

THE ISLE OF JURA,
WITH THOSE OF COLONSAY, GARVELLOCH, LUNGA, ORANSAY AND SCARBA, WITH MILLTOWN (or CRAIGHOUSE) VILLAGE.
JURA, an island of the Hebrides, is 83 miles long, and from two to
10 broad, separated from Knapdale, on the western coast of
Scotland, by the sound of Jura (10 miles Jjroad), and from the island
of Islay, to the south, by the sound of islay (about a mile broad),
and with the other islands, form the united parish of Jura and
Colonsay. Jura belongs to James Campbell, Esq., whose residence
is at Ardfin, a respectable mansion on the south shore of the island.
It is the most rugged of the Western Isles, being composed chiefly
of huge rocks piled one on Another in the utmost disorder. The
west side of the island is wild, intersected by numerous torrents,
which come rushing down from the mountains. The inhabitants all
live on the east sido of the island. The most remark-able objects on
the isle are the Paps of Jura, an eminence nearly 2,500 feet above
the level of the sea; they are three in number, standing on the same
ridge, but having two valleys separating them, the tops being round,
and consisting for some distance down the sides of loose stones,
rendering the ascent difficult; the southern one is called " Benachao-
lais" (the Mountain of Sound), the next and highest, " Benanoir "
(the Mountain of Gold), and the third " Benshianta " (the Conse-
crated Mountain). There are five of the these conical peaks, but
only three of them are distinguished as the Paps. Oorrabhain (the
steep peak) is the most precipitous, but lowest of the cluster. The
island also contains several caves, one of thera being so large that it
is said a regiment of soldiers might perform their exercise in this
spacious arena. To the north of the island, in a strait, nearly a
mile broad, separating the island of Scarba from Jura, is the gulf of
Correy Vrecken, where the rush of water is so great during the
ebbing of the tide, as to form a terrible whirlpool, the noise of which
can ho heard for many miles. The red deer abocuds in the uplands
of this island. Fairs are held on the second last Friday in May,
Friday after last Tuesday in June, Friday after last Thursday in
July, and the second last Friday in Ootober, all for cattle. Popu-
lation in 1881, 781.
Colonsay, a rather high rocky island, to the west of Jura, 12
miles long, and about 8 broad, is the property of Duncan M'Neill,
Esq., of Colonsay, who has a good mansion house on the island of
Killorran. The ruinous sacred building, and the numerons inscrip-
tions on the grave-stones covering the ashes of the illustrious dead,
are considered by many almost equal to those found on the island of
Iona. Population in 1881, 887.
GAnvELLocH, or Holy Island, contains an extensive old fort,
called Duucounel, once a stronghold belonging to the Lords of the
Isles, and in one of them, called the Nun's Island, are considerable
remains of an old nunnery, said to have been founded by St.
Columbus.
Oransay, a small island to the south of Colonsay, contains the
residence of the late Captain Alexander M'Neill, who was one of
many that perished in the melancholy shipwreck of the Orion
steamer, off Portpatrick, in 1850. The house is now tenanted by bis
son, Mr. Malcolm M'Neill, brother of the brave and distinguished
soldier Sir John M'Neill, of Colonsay.
Milltown, frequently called Craighodse, the principal village in
Jura, is eight miles from Port-Askaig Ferry. It has a good qaay,
and the harbour, which is large and formed by several small islands,
has obtained the appellation of Small Isles Harbour. A few years
ago was erected an excellent wooden wharf, extending about 400 feet
in length, which has proved a great boon to the island, as steamers
may now come alongside at any state of the tide. A bout half a mile
north of the village is the parish church and a Board school. The
viUage contains a distillery and a comfortable inn.

KILMUN,
WITH THE VILLAGES OF STRONE, BLAIRMORE, ARDENTINNY, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
KILMUN, formerly the capital of a parish of the same name, now
Incorporated with that of Dunoon, Is a pleasant, thriving
village, and of late years has acquired no little notice as a place
resorted to for sea bathing. It is situated on the north shore of
Holy Loch, 22 miles s.e. of Inveraray, 16 s.e. of Strachur,
seven s. of Duuoon, 30 w. of Glasgow, and eight w. of Greenock.
This place may be almost said to owe its origin to the late
proprietor, David Napier, Esq,, for previously to attracting his
notice there were very few houses, whereas it is now a respectable
village, having many handsome dwellings, occupied as summer
residences by opulent merchants and professional gentlomen of
Glasgow. Holy Loch is fully three miles long ; at its entrance it is
scarcely a mile wide, but within it expands to a fine sheet of water,
extending a mile and a half in width ; at its head it receives the
leaser and greater Echaig, the latter river flowing from Loch Eck, a
beautiful fresh water lake, seven miles long and one broad, whoso
Bteep, rugged shores, rising to a considerable height, form a striking
contrast on a fine day to its wide placid waters. Both the loch and
the two rivers before mentioned afford plenty of sport to the angler,
and the ride through the valley to Strachur or Loch Fyne is seldom
exceeded for wild and sublime scenery. The quav, which was con-
structed by Mr. Napier, before mentioned, in 1829, wilt admit the
steamboats alongside at all times of the tide. The quaratine station
for the Clyde was formerly opposite this village.
Of the ancient history of Kilmun little is known; hut its old
church, the mausoleum of the ducal family of Argyll, and especially

the tower of the original church, evidence it to have been in former
times a place of some note. Close by the church of Kilmun stands
a square and dilapidated tower, which, as if to avert further decay,
nature has covered with a mantle of ivy, which hangs in graceful
festooms from its mouldering walls. In the church is the sepulchre
of the Argyll family, which contains the mortal remains of six dukes
and two duchesses. Near the sepulchre are statues of a lady and of
an armed warrior, supposed to be Donnache-au-aidh, or Fortunate
Duncan; and suspended above are suutlry warlike habiliments in a
state of decay. About a quarter of a mile westward of the village is
the Kilmun Seaside Home for Convalescent Poor, a handsome
stone building, pleasantly situated, commanding a tine view of Holy
Loch and the opposite shore. Population of Kilmun in 1881, 331.
Strone, a small village, which nearly joins Kilmun, has greatly
improved within the last few years, many respectable houses and
shops having been built, besides the erection of two churches.
There is also a quay, which will admit steamers alongside at all
hours of the tide.
Portinstuck (or Blairmore), on the west shore of Loch Long,
adjoining Strone, is a small but improving village of recent erection.
There is a neat wooden pier here.
Ardentinny, another small village about five miles higher up
the loch, is situated in a beautiful vale, and celebrated for the
picturesque scenery its neighbourhood affords. There is a neat
stone church of the Establishment and a Board school here.

LOCHGILPHEAD,
ARDTtlbHAIG, BELLANOCH, KILMARTIN, KILMICHAEL, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
LOCHGILPHEAD is a thriving burgh, pleasantly situated at the
nor thorn extremity or head of Loch Gilp, from which the name
is derived. It is 125 miles w. of Edinburgh, 51 n. of Campbel-
town, 2ij<> fl.w. of Inveraray, 18% n. of Tarbert, and eight s.
of Kifmurfm. The town is of comparatively modern erection,
and its site contained only two or three fishermen's huts at tbe com-
mencement of tbe present century ; it now consists of several well-
formed streets, the footpaths of which are well paved, and thfi
inhabitants are pleuteonsly supplied with water from a reservoir
constructed by tbe burgh commissioners. The streets are lighted
by gas supplied by a joint stock company, whose pipes extend from
the Asylum, at Lochgilphead to beyond Ardrisbaigh— a distance of
four miles. Lochgilphead was constituted a burgh under the Act 25
and 26 Victoria, cap. 101, and is governed by nine commissioners of
police, including one senior and two junior magistrates appointed
under the provisions of the said Act. The inhabitants are principally
employed in agriculture and fishing, others being engaged in woollen
cloth manufactories and dye works, which have been established here
some tinie. Meetings of the Argyll Police audLunacy Boards are held
at stated periods, also monthly meetings of the South Argyll district
road trustees'and of the local justices, and a sheriffs small debt court is
held every alternate month. Lochgilphead is rapidly improving; in
front of the main street a part of the loch has been embanked, and
a piece of ground made for the convenience of the large cattle fairs
or markets. The town is connected by numerous excellent roads
with all parts of the county, and a line of telegraph also connects it
with Campbeltown, Inveraray, Oban, the Islands of Mull and Islay,
&c, and Glasgow. On tbe Kilmory side is a quay for the accommoda-
tion of the small craft engaged in the herring fishery aud coal
vessels.
The parliamentary church, erected at the bead of Argyll street, in
1827-S,~was rebuilt in 1835, at a cost of £2,500. The building is of
native stone, with freeatone facings, in the early Gothic style, Mr.
Johu Honeyman, of Glasgow, being tbe architect. There is a
Baptist chapel in the same street, a Reformed Prushyterian church,
now Martyrs' Free church, in Union street, a Free church in Lochnell
street, and there was erected in 1852, on the north side of the town,
a handsome Scotch Episcopal cathedral church. The latter is a neat
building in the decorated Gothic style of architecture, and consists
of a nave and chancel, the windows of which latter are of stained
glass with a figure of our Saviour and the arms of Argyll aud the
Isles. There is also a residence for the Bishop of Argyll and the
Isles; this is at present occupied by Dr. Carmichael, the Bishop
preferring to reside at Ballachulish. There are Board schools here.
Tho site commands an extensive view of Loch Fyne to Arran, and
the varied and beautiful scenery around. A commodious court-
house and saol have been built. The Argyll aud Bute District
Asylum, which has been considerably enlarged, and is now capable
of containing 40S persons, is situated on the hill overlooking the
town, and a combination poor-house has also been erected there. The
Crinan canal passes a few hundred yards to the west of the town, and
separates it from Aucheudarrocb, the residence of Alexander Camp-
bell, Esq., on whose property the greater part of the town is built.
A mile to the south-east is Kilmory House, the seat of Sir John
Powlett Campbell Orde, Bart. ; the house, surrounded with its well-
wooded grounds, forms a conspicuous and interesting feature in the
landscape from all parts of the loch, especially from Ardrisbaig, which
is nearly opposite. Tun miles north-west is Duntroon Cast-ie, the
property of Johu Malcolm, Esq., of Poltalloch, who possesses exten-
sive demesnes in this part of the county, and on whose estate above
two thousand acres of soft peatmoss, at the head of Loch Crinan, have
been converted into excellent corn and grazing land ; tho farm* is
appropriately called " Experiment." Calton Mor, the elegant resi-'
dence of this gentleman, erected at a cost of about £20,1100, over-
looks the fertile plain which has been thus reclaimed. Fairs are held
on the third Thursday in March for horses, on the second Wednesday
after the lastWednesday in May, and the second Wednesday after the
last Wednesday in October for black cattle, and on tho second Thurs-
day after the fourth Thursday in November for horses. Population
in 1881, 1,489.
Audiushaig is two miles s., its inhabitants being chiefly en-
gaged in fishing and curing herrings, and in the transit trade which
connects the Western Highlands with Glasgow aud the other ports
on the Clyde. This place may be said to be the port of Lochgilp-
head, with which it is now nearly joined. In addition to a protec-
tive pier of 400 yards in length, with a small lighthouse at its
extremity, a commodious low water pier and slip within the harbour,
with a depth of seven feet, wero erected in 1837 by the Government
commissioners of the Crinan canal. This canal extends from
Ardrisbaig to Crinan, a distance of ten mileE, and affords the means
of obviating a boisterous passage of forty leagues round the Mull of
Cantiro. Steam packets pass through the canal on their way from
Glasgow to all parts of the western coast, and by the Caledonian
canal to Inverness. Here is an Established church, also a Free
church, and an Episcopal and a Board school. The Ardrisbaig Hotel
is the principal one in the neighbourhood. Many excellent sites are
along the coast ; several have already been built on, and some villas
are let furnished as summer quarters, the increased communication
with the south making it a favourite coast residence. Population
in 1881, 1,224.
Bellanoch is a small village in the parish of North Knapdale,
about five miles w. of ' Lochgilphead, situated in a glen on the
southern bank of the Crinan canal, which here forms a fine triangular
sheet of water, and terminates at Crinan, about a mile further west.
The village contains a sub-post office and a Board school.
Kilmartin, a parish and small village eight miles N. of Loch-
gilphead, contains a comfortable inn, a Board Bchool, a parish
church and a Free church. About two miles to the east is the
mansion of Calton Mor, the residence of John Malcolm, Esq. of Pol-
talloch ; about a quarter of a mile more distant, standing on a
prominent rock facing Loch Crinan, is Duntroon Castle, and within
four miles of the last named are the beautiful ruins of Carnazarie
Castle, formerly tho residence of the bishops of Argyll. Eleven
miles west of Kilmartiu, by a circuitous road, is Craignish Castle,
the residence of Charles F. T. Gascoynge, of Craignish. At Bar-
breck is the handsome mansion and demesne of Admiral Colin
Yorke Campbell, i/airs are held at Kilmartin on the first Thursday
in March, for horses, and the fourth Thursday in November, for
horses and hiring servants. A prize show, in counection with the
Poltalloch Farming* Society, is held here for cattle, sheep, and
horses, in September. The parish has an area of 25,102 acres, and
in 1881 contained a population of 811.
Kilmichael-Glassary, at one time a bnrgh of considerable
repute, now a small hamlet, is a parish situated about midway
between Lochgilphead and Kilmartin. The parish church and
manse of Glassary are here. A Board school, a market stance, and
a good inn are at Bridgend, on the river Add, half a mile west of
Kilmichael. Between Kilmichael and Kilmartin there are numerous
druidical remains. Two large and much frequented fairs are held
here annually, at which from seven to eight thousand head of black
cattle are generally exposed f.»r sale — namely, on the last Wednesday
in May, which is also for horses and sheep, and the last Tuesday
before the last Wednesday in October — at both of which fairs the
hiring of servants takes place. Population of the parish in 1881,
4.346.

OBAN,
ACHNACLOICH, CONNEL FERRY, LOCH AWE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
OBAN ig a modcrn'iieat town and seaport, «i the parish of Kilrnore
and Kilbride, 136 miles w.n.w. from Edinburgh, 117 n.w. from
Glasgow, 40 s.s.w. from Fort William, 32 w.n.w. from Inveraray, over
Port Son ach an ferry (42 by coach road, via Dalmall)), and iiU s.k.
from Tobermory. To visit Staffa and lona hence, going round the
Island of Mull, the voyage is about 120 miles, and it is about tho
same distance to Portree, in Slcye. The town has a beautiful
situation on west coast of Mid Lorn district, and at tho head. of a
fine bay, formed by the Island of Krrrara in front, having an entrance
at each end. Tbe hay is from 12 to 20 fathoms deep, is well sheltered
by lofty mountains, and large enough to anchor with convenience a
pood number of merchantmen. There are three quays, that on the
north having been enlarged and improved in 1863, and tliat on the
south iul876. The imports of Oban consist chiefly of merchandisefrom
Glasgow, Liverpool and Ireland, and its principal exports are whisky
and wool. The municipal government of the town is vested in a pro-
vost, two bailies, four councillors, and a town clerk, and Oban is
contributory with the burghs of Ayr, Campbeltown, Invoraray, and
Irvine in returning one member to Parliament the present repre-
sentative boing John Sinclair, Esq. Tho now Sheriff Court House and
Police Station, tho building of which was commonced at the end of
1886, has just been completed.fromtbo designs of Mr. D. Macintosh, of
Oban. TbeCourt House, the main ontrance to which is in Albany
street, contains tho ofliccs of tho procurator-fiscal the sheriff clerk
depute, &c. The style of architecture is the severe classic, the external
appearance being commanding and boldly detailed. The front wing is
entirely finished with polished froestoue, and the back wing of grey
Kranite with freestone dressings. Further along Albany street are
the Police Buildings, consisting of tho police station and tho usual
offices, the material employed being granite and freestone to match
the baclt portion of the court house. A sheriffs court is held once a
quarter, a justice of peace court for small debts the first Friday of
every month, and a police and burgh court on tho first Monday of
every month. A quarry of excellent froestono was some years since
oponed, about four miles south, on tho shore of Loch Feochan, and
in the vicinity of Loch Awe are (ho well-known Bon Cruachan
granite quarries.
Tbe town is divided by a small river, the west side belonging to
Robert Macfie, Esq. of Airds, that on the north to A. W. M'Dougall,
Esq. of Battlefield, and Colonel M'Dougall, of Duuollie. In the east-
ern division is the parish church, erected in 1821. St. John's Scotch
Episcopal church, a neat Gothic edifice, with beautiful stained glass
windows, capable of seating 20U, was erected by subsci iption, for the
accommodation of the numerous visitors, at a cost of about £1,700; it
was consecrated in September, 1864, by tho Bishop of Loudon. The
Bishop of the diocese and trustees are tho patrons. In Tweedale
street is a Congregational chapel, built in 1820, capable of accommo-
dating 500. A handsome Free church occupies a commanding site
ill the rear of tho town. St. Columba church (Established), George
atreet, is an elegant structure, with a spire 120 feet high, erected in
1875. The United Presbyterian church, in the neighbourhood of St.
John'ei, was erected in 186b". To meet tho requirements of the rapidly
rising district of Connel Ferry, the foundation stone of a new
Ohurch of the Establishment was laid on the 17th June, 1887, and
nas recently been completed. Tho church, which is built entirely of
Ben Cruachan granite, occupies a position on a rising piece of ground
to the north of tho villago, and forms a prominent object in tho
magnificent scenery of the district. The architect was Mr. David
Macintosh, of Oban. To the south of the town, a union poorhouse
was opened in 1862, for the reception of the poor of the several
parishes in tho district of Lorn; it embraces all necessary accom-
modation, and, with tho ground, covers an area of three acres. There
are three newspapers published weekly — the Oban Times, the Oban
Telegraph, and tho Oban Express. The latter is the o«ly halfpenny
paper wholly printed and published in the Scottish Highlands, and
first appeared March 30th, 1888. The Express, which is a well printed
t ill-sized news sheet, is issued on Friday morning of each week, and
alvocates advanced Liberal principles. Though it is sold at the
popular halfpenny, the Express has all the features of a first-class
county paper ; it has also a Gaelic column and a visitors' list appears
during tho season, and special editions are issued from time
to time. The title of the paper is embellished by a view of
Oban and its pretty bay. The editor is Mr. Higgins, an old press-
man, and the publishing offices are in Craig-ard road,

Oban and its vicinity offer many inducements both to tho tourist
and antiquarian. Among tho antiquities may be particularly noticed
tho ruins of Dunollie Castle, situatod a mile north of tho town, and
three miles distant is DunstafTuage Castle. The latter formerly
belonged to the powerful Lord of Lorn, and was demolished by
Robert Bruce, in retaliation for tho iujuries inflicted upon him
and his followers, after crossing Loch Lomond on his way to Ireland,
bv that noble. In tho chapel of tho castle is a remarkable echo.
Three miles to the south, on tbo Ardrishaig road, there is tho
" Serpent Mound," at tho end of Loch Noll, which has attracted
much attentioiflroni antiquarians. Six miles to the north, on tho
opposite side to Loch Etive, are the ruins of Berigoninm, tbe ancient
metropolis of Caledonia ; and two miles further north is Balcaldine
Castle. From a hill on tho Island of Kerrara may be seen tho
distant objects of Duart Castle in Mull, Lady Rock, Ardtornish
Castle, in Morven; the Castle of Aros, the Castle of Gylen, Ben
Cruachan, Ben Nevis, the Glencoo mountains, Easdale, Luing, &c.
The tourist will be well rewarded for his trouble in visiting this
place, as it is acknowledged to be the finest view in Scotland. In
visiting the castles, &c, the antiquarian will find much gratifica-
tion, all of thorn having been tho residences cf tho ancient Scotch
nobles, their present appearance oven exhibiting proofs of their
former state and grnndeur. Oban may also bo said to rank among
the most pleasant summor retreats in tho Highlands of Scotland.
Its situation for bathing is extremely good, and it possesses every
accommodation for the convenience of the great number of fashion-
able and wealthy visitors who are constantly calling hero in I lie
summor, on their way to the fine scenery on the western coast, and
in Skyo, and to the far-famed islands of Staffa and lona, and who
by their presence impart a liveliness and interest to the appearance
of tho town. Tho inhabitants of Oban endeavour to imitate the
manners and conversation of the visitors, which causes much better
English to be spoken, and far more politeness and urbanity of
manners to bo displayed here than in many other placos on this
coast. Much improvement has been effected of late years, and many
handsome villa residences may be now seen on the hill behind tho
town; modorn shops and warehouses are also superseding the old
ones. An Act of Parliament was obtained in 1865 by tbe Callander
and Oban Railway Company, for the construction of a line from
Callander to this town, so as to connect it by a direct line of com-
munication with the Lowlands ; it was completed and opened
through to Oban ou 1st of July, 1880. The contractors for the
making of the line were Messrs. Mitchell and Ireland, of Montrose,
and for the Btation and pier, Messrs. Duncan Hobson and Sons,
Glasgow, the latter of which cost between £50,000 and .-£60,000.
The line from Callander to Oban, a distance of 70 miles, is owned
by tho Callander and Oban Railway Company, but is worked by tho
Caledonian Railway Company for them. Steamboats ply betweeu
Glasgow, Greenock, Inverness, Mull, Staffa, and lona daily in
summer, to Skyo and Stornoway twice a week, and to other places
further north once a fortnight during the season, also to Ireland.
The coach sorvice is also constant and regular. Fairs and markets :
for cattle, on tbe Monday and Tuesday before tho last Wednesday in
May, and the Friday and Saturday before the last Wednesday in
October; for sheep and wool, on the Wednesday after Inverness
July market ; for horses, on the Tuesday before tho fourth Thursday in
March, September and November ; and for hiring, April and October.
At Connel on Monday befoio the last Wednesday in May, and on
Friday before the last Wednesday in October. Population of Oban
in 1871, 2,426, and in 1881, 4,046.
Achnacloich, about nine miles from Oban, is a station on tho
Callander and Oban branch of the Caledonian railway.
Loch Awe, a station on the Callander and Oban branch of the
Caledonian line, i3 about 22 miles from Oban, betwean Lochs Fyno
and Etive. This loch, which is about 21 miles long, and one of tho
most beautiful as well as one of the finest fishing lochs in Scotland,
is surroundod on the north by huge mountains, of which tho highest
is Ben Cruachan. Its banks are well wooded, and numerous islands
arc dotted here and there, on one of which (Iuishail) formerly existed
a convent of Cistercian nuns. The loch abounds with trout, and the
most convenient hotels for the angler are the Loch Awe, Dalmally
and Port Sonachan hotels, at any of which he will find excellent
accommodation.

SOUTHEND
IS a parish of 30,801 acres, situated at the southern extremity of the
peninsular of Kintyre, the village, which is sometimes called New-
ton Argyll, being ten miles s. of Campbeltown. Agriculture and
iishiug are the predominating occupations of tho inhabitants, who
in the summer reap some advantage Irrnn the visits of many strangers
to tliis romantic and interesting part of tho country. About
half a mile south of the village stauds tho rock Dounavortie, a spot
interesting to tho historian and the antiquarian as having been the
sceuo of many sanguinary conflicts, with the details of which the
intelligent villagers are conversant— especially toe ruthless massacre
of three hundred of the M'Donaldshere by General Leslie aftor their
capitulation in 1649. Few traces of the castle now remain, but a mile
and a half west stand tho walls of a church, said to have been founded
by St. Columba, who landed in Scotland in 563. It was called Cill-
Cholum-CUille, and tho burial ground wasfomerly divided by a small
stieam.on the north side of which tho Highlanders were interred, and
on tlio south side the Lowlaudcrs ; but that distinction no longer
exists. The Marquis of Lome resides temporarily at Machariocb.
On tho island of Sanda, about three miles distant, is a lighthouse
said to be the best and most efficient one on the coast. A little to the
north of the villago stauds the parish church, aud in tho village, the
United Presbyterian church. The Board school hero is a substantial
building, and a well conducted institution. Telegraphic communi-
cation is complete between tho Mull and the principal places in the
county and Glasgow. Population of the parish of Southend in 1881,
955.

TARBERT (EAST AND WEST),
WITH THEIR VICINITIES
TARBERT, or as it is sometimes designated, East Tarbert. is a
X fishing port and village, situated at the head of a line sheltered
harbour on Loch Fyne. It is 139 miles w. of Edinburgh, 87 n.
by e. of Canipeltown, 89 s.s.w. of Inveraray, and 15 s. of
Lochgilphead. The town, or village, may ho said to form a
semicircle round the harbour- tho latter small, and the entrance to
it narrow, having several sunken rocks, and consequently difficult
of accoss, but when a vessel has once entered, no water affords more
perfect Bhelter and security. The quays are commodious, and for
many years it has been a noted fishing station, particularly for
herrings, which are mostly cured for the Glasgow markets. In a coin-
mandingsituation, overlooking the town and harbour, arc the remains
of an ancient castle and fortification Juriuerlya place of great strength,
aud immediately behind the village, iu a southern direction, is the
Established church ; there are also a Free church and a Board
school. Steamers call here daily on their way to and from Glasgow
and Ardrishaig ; communication is also constant with Inveraray,
and a steamer leaves West Tarbert for Islay daily; tho villago is
likewise connected by telegraph with Glasgow, Inveraray, Oban,
Lochgilphead, Campbeltown, and the Island of Islay.
West Tarbert is ono mile distant, at which there also is a good
quay. It is seated at tho head of a loch of the same name, which
commences here, and in a circuitous route winds through the
mountains to Ardpatrick, beyond which it empties itself into tho
ocean. The scenery on either side of the loch is remarkably
picturesque,ombracing mountain, wood and lawn, with an occasional
mansion embosomed iu foliage. Two roads branch respectively to
the east and west sides of the loch, Tho road to Ardpatrick winds
through a tine well woodod country. About tho sixth mile ou this
road is Dunmoro, tho residence of Miss Mary CampbbeU ; the
bouse is hid by its plantations from tho road, but from ita
site thore is a pleasing view of the loch and the opposite shore,
Four miles further on is the domain of Ardpatrick, the residence of
Captain James Carter Campbell, R.N., possessing every requisite for
a summer residence. At the foot of this domain is a ferry, by wbcibt
the traveller may pass to the opposite side of West Tarbert loch.
From Ardpatrick a road branchos to tho west; aud at a distanoo of
iour miles Carse is passed ; eight miles beyond this is Drimdrissaig,
the property of the late Dugald M'Neill, Esq., the efforts of whose
predecessur — tho late Lachlan RPNoill, Esq. — proved so successful
in improving the breeds of cattle, sheep, &C, iu this part of tho
country. A mile aud a half beyond Drimdrissaig is Ormsary, t' e
the seat of J. H. Campbell, Esq. A new road, running by the edge
of West Tarbert loch (to save the hill ou the main road) past the
landing stage of the Islay steamer, will be found a great convenience
by passengers going to or returning from Islay. Tlio Royal Mail
coach passes daily both going to East Tarbert and returning to
Campbeltown. Near the sixth milestone is the villago of White-
house, containing a Board school, and about half a mile above the
village is Stonefield, a tine mansion and extensive domain of the
Trustees of Colin G. Campbell, Esq. An extensive fair is held at
Tarbert on the last Thursday in July, which continues three dayaf
aud is for tho sale of hurst - . Iu 1981 Tarbert contained a population
of 1,629.

ARGYLLSHIRE
TOBERMORY,
WITH THE ISLANDS OF MULL, STAFFA, IONA, ULVA, TIREE AND COLL, AND THE DISTRICTS OF
ARDNAMURCHAN AND MORVEN.
rpOBEUMORYis a thriving seaport and watering place on the
J- north coast of the Ishiud of Mull, 171 miles w.n.w. of
Edinburgh, 62 n.w. of Inveraray, and 30 n.w. of Ob:ui. It encircles
tlie extremity of a fine sheltered bay, and is oue of the
safest liar-bourn among the western isles, being protected from the
Htniuil of Mull by an island, called Calve Island, which stretches
noa'ly across the entrance, but leaving ample room at its northern
point fur the largest vessels to enter the harbour — though few but
small cratt can effect this at the south-east point, even at high
water. About two miles from Tobermory, in the Bound of Mull, a
lighthouse, called the Ruuagall, was eroctod in 1857, which has proved
of great service to vessels passing that way. The town is between two
and thrco miles from the mainland of Morven, and dorives its name
from a celebrated well or spring, called " Mary's Well," to which
tho vulgar Buperstitiously ascribe many imaginary virtues.
The Spanish admiral's ship Florida, one of the " Armada," when at
anchor hereiu 1588, was destroyed by an emissary of Queeu Eliza-
beth's Government. Part of the wood of this vessel was presented to
bis Majesty George IV., on his visit to Edinburgh, by Sir Walter
Scott; and there is in the possession of tho Duke of Argyll a largo
brass gun that belonged to the same vessel, and found many years
since in Tobermory bay. On tho west side of the town are tho
ivmainsof an ancient chapel, dedicated to the Virgin, and of a fortiQ-
cution, understood to be of Norwogian origin. Tobermory formerly
belonged to the British Society for extending the fisheries and
improving the sea coast of the kingdom, but is now the propcrtv of
Alexander Allan, Esq., of Aros. Tho town, which was built in 1783,
along with Ullapool, by the Biitish Fishing Company, as the sito of
a fishing eBlablishnnmt and the rendezvous of herring vessels, pos-
sesses two quays. A new quay was begun in 1835, by Colonel Camp-
bell, of Knock, which was quite dry at low water; this subsequently
proving inadequate, has beeu absorbed in a new quay and pier,
uuderlaken and constructed by F. W. Caldwell, Esq., proprietor of
this part of the town, at a cost of upwards of ±12,000. It is deeper,
more capacious, ami in every respect an improvement, and was
opened in 1864, with offices, stoies, waiting rooms, and a cattle pen.
It is a little to the north of the old quay, and nearer to tho entrance
of the bay. The town has increased considerably in this direction
of late years, and the harbour is much frequented both by steamers
and sailing vessels, which renders better quay accommodation
necessary. As the only town in Mull and a large circumjacent dis-
trict, both Ilebridean and continental, it possesses much provincial
importance, and is the seat of a considerable domestic trade. A
branch of the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, is established here, and
occupies a handsome building of atone, completed in 1865. It is
situated in the main street, aud contributes much to the improve-
ment of the town. There iB also a branch of the North of Scotland
Bank, Limited, a fine building.
The places of worship are in connection with the Established, Free,
and Baptist denominations. The Free church is a neat building,
a largo proportion of its cost having been defrayed by Alexander
Allan, EBq., of Aros, one of the two local proprietors. The
Established church is a somewhat plain building, built in 1827-8,
but occupies a commanding situation overlooking the bay and
island. The public schools adjoin the Established church, and
are in every respect a most creditable institution ; there is also
a female Industrial school. There are four hotels, the principal one
being the Western Isles, erected in 1882-3, aud is a very line building,
situated ou a bold and elevated position above the principal pier.
First-c ass accummodation may also be bad at the Kuyal and
Mishuish Hotels. The Temperance Institute, the generous gift to
the town of Alexander Allan, Esq., of Aros, is of recent erection, and
includes a reading room, well supplied with newspapers, periodicals,
Ac, billiard room, circulating library, aud ball, capable of seating
between SOU and 400 persona. In the immediate neighbourhood is
a beaul if ul loch called Mary's Lake, situated between two finely-
wood* d hills, extremely precipitous in their descent. This pleasing
spot belongs to Alexander Allan, Esq., and the elegant mansion
erected on the banks of the lake has recently undergone extensire
repairs. The tourist will be much gratified by visiting this pic-
turesque scenery, including the three cascades, oue of which is
particularly giand. Commandinglj situated above the town are tho
County Buildings, a substantial ereciiou of stone, embracing the
tjiu-riff's court and procurator fiscal's offices, Ac. Hero tho sheriff sub-
stitute lio^ls au ordinary and small debts court every Wednesday
inning session; a police court is also held here as business requires.
Tobetniory is the polling station at county elections for all voters
residing in the Islands of Mull, Cull, Iona, Tiree, Ulva, aud in Morven.
By ascending a bill in the neighbourhood, a view of the islands
of Tirec, Coll, Eigg, Muck, Skye, and various others of smaller
importance ib obtained. The union poorhouse, erected for tho
reception of the poor of the six surrounding parishes, distant
rather better than a mile from Tobermory, is capable of accommo-
dating 130 inmates, aud cost £7,700. The quoad sacra parish of
Tobermory contained hi 1881 a population of 1,353.
Mull, which is about 26 miles long, and in some places 24 miles
broad, has been much improved of late. Beinmore, the highest moun-
tain in the island, is said to approach 3.0U0 feet above the level of the
sea. The island contains many remains of ancient castles, &c,
among which are those of Duart, once the stronghold of the chief of the
Macleans, occupying the briuk of a high cliff which shoots out from
the coast of Mult into the sound, opposite Obau, and Aros castle, the
Stronghold of the Lords of the Isles. On the western Bide, close to
to the Ross of Mull, is worked a quarry of red granite of porphyry,
some of which was employed by the Duke of Sutherland in the
internal improvements of Dunrobin Castle. Fairs in Mull : at Salen,
a large horse fair is held on the first Thursday after the 20th of
August, or on thc,20th if a Thursday, ana for cattle and sheep on the
10+— S-A-N
Tuesday before the second Wednesday in May, and tho Tuesday
before the last Wednesday iu October ; at Craigauure, Morven, and
the islands of Coll and Tiree, fairs are held a few days before those
at Salen. Tho Mull Agricultural Association, under the prewidency
of the Duke of Argyll, holds au annual show of cattle and produce at
Salen about tho middle of September. Population in 1881,5,229.
The celebrated island of Staffa is about 15 miles distant from Mull.
To give a description of this magnificent produotiou of nature is, it
mutt be confessed, oxtremely dirfloult. All who have seen Fingal'a
Cave coueur iu the opinion that, when it first bursts upon the view,
the effect is indescribable— awe and astonishment so completely fill
the mind that there is no room for minor emotions. The island,
when seen from a distauco, appears a round, lumpish, uninteresting
rock, and not till approached within less than a quarter of a mile
does it unfold to the visitor the muBeum of wonders. It is irregularly
oval, extending from north to south, and moasuriug about one mile
and a half in circumference ; it presents an uneven table-land resting
on cliffs of variable height— the highest point occurring between the
"Great Cave" aud the "Boat." The caves are so numerous that tbey
may be said to perforate at brief intervals the whole face of tho
island ; but those that occur on the south and north sides are remark-
able neither for their beauty nor for magnitude; and five on tho
north-east are distinguished chiefly for making loud reverberations
when the surge of the sea breaks into them, aud which rosemble the
distant discharge of heavy ordnauce. Proceeding towards tho
south from the landing place, the objects of chief interest which
challenge the visitor's notice aud admiration are — first, the Scallop,
or Clamshell Cave; second, Buachaille, or Herdsman; third, tho
Causeway and the Face, or Colonnade; fourth, Fingal's or Great
Cavo ; fifth, the Boat Cave ; Bixth, the Cormorants, or Mackiuuon's
Cave. At the Scullop or Clamshell Cave, the columns on one side are
bent so as to form a serios of ribs, not unlike the inside of a ship; it
is 80 feet in hoight. 16 to 18 feet in breath at the entrance, aud its
length is about 130 feet. The rock Buachaille the Herdsman is a
pile of columns about 30 feet high, visible only at low water. Tho
Causeway here presents an extensive surface. It is formed of the
broken ends of columns, once continuous to tho heiybt of the cliffs.
This alone exceeds the noted "Giant's Causeway," as well iu
dimensions as iu the diversity of its surface. The Great Face ia
formed of three distinct beds of rocks,of unequal thickness, inclined
towarda the east, iu au angle of about nine degrees. It is only with
the morning sun that the Great Face of Staffa can be seen iu perfec-
tion, as the general surface is undulating aud uneven ; great masses
of light and shadow are thus produced, so as to relieve that which,
in direct light, appears a flat, ius.ipid mass of strong wall. The
Cormorants, or Mackiuuon's Cavo (though little visited iu couse-
queuce of the fraud and indolence of the boatmen) is easy of access,
and terminates iu a gravelly beach, where a boat may be drawn up.
The Boat Cave is accessible only by the sea. Staffa is visited five or
six times a week bv the steamboat from Obau; the visitors are
generally lauded at Fingal's Cave, and stay about an hour ou the
island to examine its wonders.
The far-famed island of Iona, or Icolmkill, or Iccldmb-kill, or
I (pronounced Be), tho Island of tho Cell of Columba, the earth of
which may be termed royal, ia about three miles in length and ono
and a half in breadth. It was once tho luminary of the Caledonian
regions, "whence savage clana and roving barbarians derived Lho
benefits of kuowledgo and the blessings of religion." It is separated
from Mull by a channel of about a mile in width ; it is 0 miles a.w. of
Staffa, a;td about 36 w. of the nearest part of the district called Mor-
ven, on the mainland of Scotland, and is resorted to during summer
by the antiquarian, the historian, the tourist, and even tho
fashionable, who crowd numerously, some to explore or examine,
and others to behold and admire the sacred ruins that ou
lauding arrest the attention of every stranger; these are pointed
out by a person deputed by his Grace the Duke of Argyll.
Here the visitor finds himself surrounded by the gravea ol those who
were royal aud noble and holy in Caledonia and Hibernia a thousand
years ago; while tho thick walls, the massive arches, and tho finely-
wrought pillars of the many sacred edifices which in remote agea
flourished iu this Banctified isle, supply the deepest reflections, and
awaken the most solemn feelings in tho contemplative mind. A
parliamentary church was erected here in 18J8, and there is also a
parliamentary school. The inhabitanta havo made a profitable
traffic by disposing of the channel pebbles to visitors, who now fre-
quent the isiaud. They assert that the pebbles of a certain appear-
ance are endowed with many secret virtues, given to them by their
tutelar saint, Columba. Population in 1881 (with Kilfini'-hen and
Kilvickeou), 1,995.
Pout-na-Cukracft, "The Bay of the Boat," ou the Bouth-west
side, derives both its name and importance from a tradition of its
having been the lauding place of the currach, the bide buat of St.
Columba.
The Isle of Ulva, separated from Mull by a channel of about one
hundred yards broad, ia said to produce the best kelp in thy West-
ern Islands. There are a great number of basaltic columns on the
Bhore, and on the south side is a cave 60 ft. long, 58 ft. broad, and 30 ft
in average height, having an archod entrance in the f'aco of au
abrupt rock, with a span of 37 feet. About a mile to the north a
mountain stream fnlls in one unbroken descent from a rock 66 feet
iu height, directly into the sea. The isiaud is now the property of
Francis William Clark, Esq. j.p. who resides there.
Tiree, westward of Mull, and distant 30 miles from Tobermorv
ia a fertile isiaud, 14 miles long, and from one to five broad*
It abounds in marble, of which it is said the rocks ou its shore are
entirely composed ; but for some unexplained cause, the quarried
cannot be profitably worked. In the churchyard at Soroby is a
1 " Soror Anna Abbatissa do
beautiful monumental cross, inscribed

Y," Tbere is a harbour at Heynisli, and n quay which was built
in 183G; the accommodation is, Jiowever, deemed insufficient. A
lighthouse was likewise rnisod on the dangerous roeks called
Skerry vore, which lie about 16 miles s.w. of Tiree. It is
of granite, obtained from the quarries of Mull, ami is considered
one of the best and most durable specimens of this kind of
architecture in Europe; the light is dioptric. Fairs are laid in
May, on the Wednesday before that at Mull in August on the
Monday, and in October on the Wednesday before those in Mull.
Population in 1881, 2,733.
Coll, to the north of Tiree, is rather a sterile and mountainous
island ; it is 14 miles in length, and about two and a half in
breadth, and seven miles distant from Mull. On it are the rains of
a caetle, which appear to advantage from the sea. A fair is held
here in May, on the Tuesday before those in Mull. Population in
1881, 643.
Ardnamtjrchan is chiefly known from the dangers frequently
encountered in the navigation around its projecting point, particularly
in boisterons weather, wheu the tremendous billows of the North
Atlantic break against it with awful fury. It is a district of
considerable length, having Loch Sunart to the south., the Atlantic
to the west, the same ocean and Loch Shiel to the north, aud Ardgour
to the east. It is sterile, but feeds huge flocks of sheep and some
cattle, and the hills are stated to be rich iu minerals. Upon the
point has been orceted a lighthouse by the Commissioners of the
Northern Lights, which is of great service in the navigation of this
perilous coast.
At Steostian, fairs arc held in May on Thursday buforo last
Wednesday; June, on Friday after third Thursday (o.s.); August,
fur lambs, on Wednesday if 12th, if not, following Wednesday ; and
October, on Thursday before last Wednesday. In 18S1 Ardnamurchan
and Struntiau had a population of 4,102.
Morven is an extensive district, hounded on the south-west by
the sound of Mull, on the north by Loch Sunart,and on the east and
south-east by Loch Linnhe. The country is hilly, and its shores
a>e partially wooded. It is principally occupied in grazing farms,
aud contains several respectable gentlemen's seats, but no village of
sufficient importance to commamd attention.
Iu concluding our brief sketch of these interesting and not wholly
uuimportaot islands, and the parallel districts on the mainland, wo
may observe that the scenery connected with them is of a description
not easily tefbe forgotten by those who have once visited them;
it is faithful.y pourtrayed by the iucomparable Scott in is " Lord of
the Isles." Ardtornish Castle, in Morven, so often allnded to by
the bard, is well worthy the tonrist's notico; as are the interesting
remains of Aros Castle, the ancient residence of the Kings or Lords
of the Isles, and Castle Duart, formerly the residence of the M'Leans,
in Mull, with Castlo Doonau, in the district of Lismore.

AYKSHIBE.
fTHISisa populous marithno county, ou the western coast of the Lowlands. From Skelmnrlie in the north to the mouth of the Galloway-
x burn (which enters Loch Ryan) in the south, the distance is 08 miles, but along the const it is 84; between Hareshaw Hall ana Tronii.
which is its greatest breadth, it measures 28 niilos ; 19, however, being about the average. It is bounded on the north and north-east by
the small county of Renfrew, on the east by the counties of Lanark and Dumfries, on the south-east by the stewartry of Kirkcudbright,
and on the south by Wigtownshire. In figure the county resembles an elongatod crescent, with its concavity preseutbd to the sea. At
the north and south ends the land is diminished almost to a point, being but a few miles in breadth. The superficial extent of tho
county comprises 1,149 square milos of land, or 735,202 acres, of which 13,083 acres arc under water. It" is divided into three principal
or grand disl riots— Carrick, Cunningham, aud Kyle. The first li^s on the southuru side of tho Doou ; the second comprehends tho
whole of the county north of the river Irvine and Kyle division is situated between the rivers Doou and Irvine.
Early History.— This county was anciently inhabited by the British tribe called tho Damnii, a branch of the Celtic nation who
survived tho period of tho Roman yoke, and were, in the courso of time, over-run by and amalgamated with the Scoto-Irish from Kintyre
In 750 these again were partly conquered by a number of Northumbrians, who settled in Kyle. From 848 to 1097, the inhabitants of
Ayrshire were governed as a Celtic people, on Celtic principles. Upon the accession of Edgar, in 1097, the jurisprudence of the county
became changed, and an activo colonization commenced, which peopled every district with new comers from England. Barons now
sprang up, who built castles and churches, and towns arose, which became inhabited by persons engaged in trade. Ayrshire was tho
scene of perpetual turmoil during the wars of Bruce and Edward. Tho son of the first Bruce marrying the Countess of Carrick
became Earl Carrick in her right ; and it was their son who, on the expulsion of Baliol, formed pretensions to the throne which he
obtained by his courage, fortitude, and prudence; thus Ayrshire possessed tho honour of giving birth to the illustrious restorer of tho
Scottish monarchy. Some of the valorous exploits of "Wallace, in supporting the national independence, were performed in this county.
Scarcely any division of Scotland remained so long under the torments of the baronial system as Ayrshire. For centuries tho chiefs
wore perpetually engaged in feuds and rebellious, and so weak or inefficient were the laws that it was seldom redress or puuisbmeut
followed outrage. Tho Boyds, the Dalrymples, the Campbells, th« Colvilles, and the houses of Egliuton and Glencairn had their
spective quarrels of long standing, which occasionally ended in reckless violence or sanguinary slaughter. A great proportion of
theso disturbances arose from contests regarding heritable jurisdictions, such as stewardships and bailiewicks of certain districts,
BesideB the feuds of these pugnacious barons, the country was frequently distracted by the pride or crimes of the Kennedys. So late
as the reign of James VI. this powerful clan was involved in a feud of more than ordinary importance, which originated in tho cruel
treat mont of Allan Stewart) the commentator, of Crossraguell, in 1570, by the Earl of Cassillis, and his brother, Thomas Kennedy of
Culzean. The vexations which the people of this county so long suffered by such an ill-organised system seemed to have impressed them
with a fervid doBire for those political liberties which thoy believed were to accrue from tho institution of the Covenant. Tho conse-
quence was that, during tho beats of the seventeenth century, few took so activo a share in tho insurrections which were opposed to
royal authority. A committee of the Privy Council sat at Ayr in 1678, for directing the military executive to its proper objects. In July
1680, a conflict occurred, wherin several insurgents wero taken, and the rebellion on this occasion quelled. Proceedings of this harassing
character inducod a ready accession to the government of William III., aud the conduct of the people who went armed to Edinburgh to
wait upon the estates, was very magnanimous. It need hardly bo mentioned that the turmoils which had from a very early period kept
Ayrshire in a warliko attitude, and ever ready for tidings of disaster and spoliation, had the natural effect of keeping its agricultural
capacities long shut up, and its energies of a useful tendency long untried.
Scsl, Surface, &c— Tho most fertile part of the shire is the great vale of Cunningham, which is comparatively level ; Kyle possesses
much valuable land towards the coast, but ita interior lies high, and is a rough mountainous territory ; Carrick is a hilly, wild region
throughout, and is only of value or interest in its northern angle, betwixt the rivers Doon and Girvan. In a general sense, the wholo
district of Ayrshire is shut out on its eastern boundary from the adjacent counties by high ridgy land ; and with little variation the
surface inclines either to the sea or to tho rivers which flow in that direction. The sea coast is mostly sandy, aud indented with several
excellent harbours. In the rocks are several remarkable caves, worthy the inspection of tho curious. Though moist, the climate is
healthy, the rainfall in this being much above that of the central and eastern counties, heavy rain not being infrequent and occasionally
of long duration. For fully two-thirds of the year the wind blows from the west and south-west, thus causing the climate to be more
temperate and mild than counties on the east coast. Tho principal eminences are :— Haresbaw Hill, 1,527 ; Cairntable, 1,650 ; Misty Law,
1,663; Hill of Stake, 1,711 ; Knockdolian, 1,950 ; Black Craig, 2,298; Shalloch on Minnocb, 2,520: aud Kirriereoch Hill, 2,562 feet. There
are many elegant seats belonging to the nobility and gentry of the kingdom ; among tho principal owners are the Earl of Glasgow, the
Earl of Eglinton, the Marquis of Ailsa, the Duke of Portland, the Marquis of Bute, and the noble family of Hastings. To the south of
Irvine stands tho ancient castle of Dundonald, once a royal residence, and afterwards the family seat of the Cochranes, Earls of Dun-
donald. The ancient castle of Rowallan is a few miles distant from Kilmarnock, and stands almost on the boundary lino which separates
the parishes of Kilmarnock, Fenwick, and Kilmaurs. Dean Castle, the former residence of tho Kilmarnock family, is still an
interesting ruin.
Produce, Manufactures, Minerals, &c— It was not until about the middle of tho eighteenth century that tho inhabitants of
Ayrshire began to discover and avail themselves of its capabilities as an agricultural district. The settlement at this period of Margaret
Oonntoss of Loudoun, in Loin Castle, may he deemed the epoch of efficient improvement. By her great assiduity, precept aud example,
agriculture was promoted and encouraged ; and in a short time the nobility and gentry of Ayrshire began in earnest to improve their
estates upon systematic principals, under the skilful directions of intelligent stewards. Farmers wero invited by them from more
southern shires to instruct the tenantry in the management of land according to the most approved methods of the experienced
agriculturist. Observing the peculiarities of the climate, and ascertaining tho nature of the soil, the judicious culture of the various
species of grasses became a primary object, and the general adoption of dairy farms was the natural consequence. This system
has been persevered in, and tho dairies in this district are superior, perhaps, to any others in Scotland; tho value of their
produce in milk and butter is very considerable, and "Dunlop" cheese is unrivalled throughout the country, finding a ready
markot wheresoever offered, and Ayrshire may now be reckoned as the Cheshire of Scotland. Latterly, under tho auspices of
the County Agricultural Association, and many individual proprietors, of whom the late Mr. Campbell, of Crnigie, was ono of
the foremost, the Cheddar method has been very generally introduced, and with very great success; so that Cheddar cheese is one
of the staple productions of tho county. Oats are extensively grown, the other crops being wheat, barley, rye, flax, turnips,
potatoes, beans, &c. The breed of cattle has likewise been much improved, the Aryshire short-horns being much prized, both for the pur-
poses of the dairy and the butcher. As agriculture thus successfully progressed, excellent roads wore formed, and these have been fol-

lowed np by railways for the transmission of goods and persons ; a lino was formed as far as Girvan, but is now carried on to Stranraer*
and from thence to Poitpatrick. From tho fostered spirit of industry, and the enhanced value of land, resulted a corresponding exertion
for the establishment of manufactures; tho abundance of fuel, the pleuty aud cheapness of the necessaries of life, materials for building,
and means of transit to the large towns in the adjacont shires, presented facilities for this purpose which were obvious and enconraging.
The manufacture of stockings, carpets, cloths, and bonnets extended genorally, but Kilmarnock became the most noted. At the capital
of the county have been established dye works, woollen manufactories, iron foundries, tanneries, large steam-engine manufactories and
chemical works; at Catrine, well-kuown and extensive cotton works ; at Kilbiroie are several works for the manufacture of fishing nets ;
Mauchlino is noted as the place where fancy wood-work articles are made; at Stevenston are iron works and a dynamite manufactory;
at Old Cumnock is an extensive pottery and a woollen manufactory ; at Irvine, chotnical manufactories and iron forges ; and Muirkirk is
noted for its poiuhmus iron works. Fishing is also cirriod on at all the largo seaports, herring, cod, ling, &c. being caught, and in the
lochs and Bt roams there is an abundance of trout, and in tin1 larger rivers are to ho found salmon. During tho forty years between 1841
and 1881, the population of this county had increased 53,148, This largo addition to tho population in in n grout measure owing to tho
prosperous manufacturing state of tho count}'. Ayrshire possesses im xhanstiblo coalfields, freestone quarries, and ironstone mines,
with several rich ores, particularly those of lead and copper, hut tho two hitter ltave not been wrought to any great extent ; marble,
gypsum, and marl have been found, and black lead has been discovered; lire-proof stono aud whetstone aro obtaiuod, and petrefactions
exist in various parts of the county. Iu the hills of Carrick aro agatus, porphyries, and other valuable fossils ; and traces of antimony
have not escaped the searching eye of the miucralogist.
Rivers, Lakes, SpniNas, and Railways.— In the ridge of the hills which intersect-* the district of Carrick, almost alii he rivers in
the south originate. The Tweed, the Esk, the Nith, the Annan, the Urr, and others flow to the east and south ; while the Stinchar, tho
Girvan, tho Doon, the Ayr, and the La gar, traverse the county, and pour their fruitful streams into the Irish Channel. Besides these,
tho Irvine and some smaller rivers water the northern parts of Ayrshire. In the midst of so many minerals, a number of springs
impregnated by their qualities are to be expected ; and indeed almost every parish has its mineral water, though none have attained the
dignity of spas. There aro various inland lakes, particularly in Carrick— the most extensive being Loch Doon, which is six miles long
and about three-quarters in breadth, from whence the Doon river flows. Ayrshire participates extensively in the conveniences afforded
to commerce and general transit by railways. The Glasgow and South-Western enters the county from Glasgow and passes Boitht
Kilbirnie, and Dairy, from which latter place a branch runs on to New Cumnock, and thence by Dumfries to Carlisle ; while another
travorses tho county by Kilwinning, Ayr and Girvan to Stranraer. There aro also branches from Kilwinning to Ardrossan, from Ayr to
Dalmollington, Mauchline and Muirkirk ; ono from Auchinleck joining the hitter at Uron berry ; one from Kilmarnock to Troon ; and ono
from Irvino to Kilmarnock. The Glasgow, Barrhead and Kilmarnock Joiut Line runs from Glasgow to Kilmarnock, and there is also ono
from Ardrossan to Largs.
Ecclesiastical and Civil Divisions, Population, 4c— The whole of Ayrshire was formerly comprehended in the bishopric of
Glasgow; and it formed three deaneries, corresponding with the threo divisions before mentioned. The county now comprises forty-six
parishes, forming two presbyteries in the Synod of Ayr and Glasgow. The contributory burghs (or those which, in conjunction with
others, aro represented in tho Senate), belonging to this county are Ayr and Irvine ; two members also represent the shire at large. The
present county members are : for the Northern divisiou, the Hon. Hugh F. H. Elliot ; and for the Southern division, the Hon. Grcville R,
Vi rnon. The lord lieutenant of the county is the Earl of Stair, k.t. The county by the Government returns for 1871 contained a popnla*
tion of 200,809, and by thoso for 1881, 217,519, exhibiting an iucreaso of over 1871 of 16.710. The parliamentary constituency of the
Northern division of tho county in 1887-8 was 11,231, that of the Southern division being 14,750. Tho valuation of tho county (inoluding
railways) for 1887-8 is £1,055,690. The number of inhabited houses in 1881 was 41,733 ; uninhabited, 3,316 j and in course of erection, 260.

AYRSHIRE
ARDEOSSAN,
A WATERING placo and maritime port in the pariah of its name, ■
is pleasantly situated on the western shorn of Ayrshire, on an i
accessible point of the coast, aud only a mile wt*sfc of Saltcoats ; it is'!
74 miles s.w. of Edinburgh, 30 s.w. of Glasgow, 25 s.s.w. ofi
Paisley, and 8 n. by w. of Irvine. The town is built upon a plan |
of regularity and taste, the houses being all of stone and
of commanding altitude. The visitants in tlie bathing -
season will Hud all the appliances necessary to their enjoy- 1
in-lit . The baths include the customary varieties, and are enclosed
in a handsome building, both spacious and commodious. The town'
s indebted for its existence to the noble family of Eglinton, the
Earl having a mansion in the town. There are a number of villa3,
many of which exhibit considerable taste in design ; and the town is
extouding in all directions. A large and elegant hotel was erected
by a late Lord Eglinton, at an expense of .£10,000. The public
rooms, tbo bed rooms, oftices, and stabling are most commodious.
There are three banking establishments — the Bank of Scotland, a
commanding building adjoining the hotel ; the Royal Bank of Scot-
laud near to the railway, also a fine building; and tho Union Bank
of Scotland, in Princes stroet. The harbour was commenced under
tho auspices of tho before-named munificent patron, who expended
nearly £100,000 upon it. His successors continued to improve it
uulil 1880, whou it was Bold to a company, tho present Earl
retaining a very large interest in it, and guaranteeing a dividend of
^Vi per cent for several years. A new dock is being constructed,
which, when completed, will be ouo of tho best in Scotland, as a
argo depth of water is provided for. Tho present dock occupies an
area of seven Scotch aores, and admits 50 vessels of from three to
six hundred tons burden. Tbo Glasgow and Sonth- Western rail*
way for many years had a monopoly of the carrying trade of tho
harbour ; but this year(188S) the Ayrshire and Lanarkshire railway
is expected to be opened, when direct communication will be had
with the Lanarkshire coalfields on the ono hand, and Ireland and
England on the other. At presont steamers ply regularly between
Ardrossan and several parts of Ireland, and there is daily inter-
course during the greater part of the year between it and the
Island of Arran. Thero is a yard for shipbuilding at the harbour,
an engineering works, a large iron foundry, and some extensive
timber yards and saw mills.
The church, at the entrance to tho town from Saltcoats, is in
elegant taste, and is a highly ornamental edifice. There aro four
other church, viz., the English Episcopal, United Presbyterian,
Free, and Independent. Thore has been erected at tbo head of tho
town, a commodious school, under the Scotch Education Act, built
to acconimodato about 670 children. In the neighbourhood is a
chalybeate spring, whose medicinal properties are beneficial in cases
of debility, scrofula, &c. Tbo picturesqe ruins of ArdroBsan Cnstlo
stand on an eminence overlooking tho town. There is also upon an
adjoining eminence a handsome m niument, erected to a deceased
philanthropic gentleman who, during the latter years of his life,
interested himself deeply in the various institutions connected with
this placo. An agricultural society has beon established here. A
fair is held on tho Tuesday before that of Ayr, which is in July.
Thore is also a weekly grain market. Population of the parish (the
area of which is 7,341 acres), in 1871, 7,232, and in 1881, 7,777; of
the town, 4,086.

Roman eagle. Accordingly we find that the site of modern Ayr
retained in the eleventh century the undoubted traces of a Roman
station, and tradition informs us that a hamlet, the vestige of this
station, was in existence until the latter part of the 12th century,
when William, surnamed the Lion, erased the odious blot, and laid
the foundation of a new town in tha ashes of the former conqnerer.
Here it was that the neuowncd William Wallace first openly em-
bodied that hardy host which made the southerner " backward reel,"
and the powerful garrison of Edward I. was compelled to cower
under his " thunder arm." There is still a remnant of the venerable
church of St. John, converted by Cromwell into a fort. Attached
to the old tower of St. John is a residence in the old baronial style,
bo that this remnant of a bygone age is likely to survive for
many generations to come. At a short distance on the southern
shore is Greenon Castle, one of those uncoutbly constructed square
castles so frequently arresting the attention of tho stranger in this
district; it stands on tho summit of a rock overhanging tho sea,
and, from a distance, has an imposing aspect. In the sarao direction,
on a clear day, may bo discerned tbo celebrated Ailsa Craig, rising
nesrly 1,100 feet perpendicularly out of the sea. Tho bay of Ayr is
very much admired, and its graceful curve boars a striking resem-
blance to the beautiful bay of Naples. The river is crossed by two
bridges— one, the old bridge, or "Auld Brig o' Ayr," is one of tho
few remaining relics of the ancient burgh, and a fine specimen of the
architecture of the 12th century, being still in a very perfect state of
presevation. Tbo other is tbo now bridge, the original of which
was erected in the days of Burns. In fulfillment of the prophecy of
the poet, the bridge some years ago became a " shapeless cairn,"
and was replaced by a new 'erection of considerably greater width,
and of apparently substantial workmanship; though there aro not
wanting prophets who say that the " auld brig" will livo to see oven
it crumble. Immediately opposite, across tho Frith of Clyde, is the
Island of Arran, whose majestic mountains present some features of
the sublime, and whose summits are visible to the naked eye, in fine
weather, from which tho headlands of Larne, in the county of Antrim,
in Ireland.
The most conspicuous decoration of the town is the lofty spire,
that rises to a height of 219 feet above the Town's buildings, which
were ereoted in 1828, at a cost of £10,000. These buildings have
Bince been largely added to by the addition of a spacious hall, suit-
able for public entertainments, and capable of containing comfort-
ably 1,400, or, at a stretch, 2,000 people. A very fine organ has been
put into the hall, at a cost of about £2,000. In addition ,the buildings
now afford accomodation for the Town Clerk. Tow ii Chamberlain,
and Corporation waterworks and other public office* .the burgh. In
these buildiugs are now kept tho burgh records, and tho burgh
courts aro held here. The noble tower, called " Wallace Tower," in
High street, is another ornamental structure; it is embellished with
a statue, by Thorn, of tho hero whose name it bears. A second
statue of this warrior occupies a niche iu the wall of a house iu the
corner of Newmarket street. Wellington square is a fine quadrangle,
having a noble erection to form tho west side iu the court-houso and
hall, built at the joint expense of the county and burgh, at a cost
exceeding £30,000. The east front of this edifice, which is wholly of
stone, is ornamented with an imposing portico. A verdant lawn
forms the centre of tbo square, enclosed with iron railing, and tbo
surrounding houses arc chaste, though plain, in architecture. Two
fine statues in bronze have been placed within tho squaro— ono to
tho memory of tbo lato Right lion. Archibald William, Earl of
Eglintou and Winton, who was Lord Lieutenant of the county, also
for some years Viceroy of Ireland, and who died in 1861 ; the other
is to tho memory of tho lato Brigadier General J. G. Neill, c.b. aide-
de-camp to the Queen, who was killed at Lucknow on tho 25th of
September, 1857, and who was horn in one of the bouses in Wel-
lington square. A large gun, captured at Scbastapol, is placed on
an iron carriago in tho enclosure round the County buildings, at
the upper end of tbo square, In the County buildings are tho
public offices, in which aro kept tho records Of the county, and hero
are held the courts for the county. Her Majesty's gaol is a com-
modious structure, at the back of the County buildings, its front
looking upon the bay; it is arranged upon the most modern
approved system of discipline. Considerable additions to the town,
especially to tho westward, have been made within the last twenty
years. Many neat villas give accommodation to the natives of
Glasgow and other inland localities, who repair to this fine watering
place during the summer months. Among recent improvements
made in tho town, not the least is a broad substantial esplanade
that has been formed along the shore, affording a fine carriage way
as well as a promenade for foot passengers. In June, 1886, the
Glasgow and South-Western Railway Co. opened a new and com-
modious station for the convenience of the greatly increasing traffic
to this town, its platform covering a surface of 3,000 square feet.
The company have also erected a large and handsome hotel adjoin-
ing the station; it is one of the .best furnished hotels in Scotland,
having every accommodation for tourists and business men,
An extensive trade ig carried on in the export of coal from thi«
place to Ireland. Mines of this article, as well as fine quarries of
stone, abound in tho neighbourhood. The other principal exports
consist of iron, coal-tar, lampblack, and water of Ayr stone. Its
imports comprise hides, tallow, barley, yarn, linen, spars, doals and
hemp. Tbo convenience for shipping is superior to most of tho
towns on tho coast, as tho harbour baa boon much improved by
0 irrying an extensive stone pier into the soa, affording a greater depth
of water for vessels entering, and security when in the harbour. A
now dock has been built, eight acres in extent, with a quayago of
2,000 feet, at a cost of £150,000 ; it has a depth of water at low tido
of 15 feet. On the south beach, immediately adjacent to tho
esplanade, is a laz'ge ship-building yard, which was opened in 1883,
and where iron vessels, ranging up to 2,000 tons, have since then
1 ecu constructed.
The parliamentary and municipal burgh of Ayr embraces tho
greater part of Newton and Wallacetown. TheBe parishes in con-
junction with Ayr proper form tho burgh of Ayr, and the civil
government is vested in a provost, four bailies, a dean of guild, a
treasurer, and eleven councillors. Ayr is connected with the burgh
of Irvine, in this county, and Campbeltown, Inveraray, and Oban in
Argyleshire, in returning a member to Parliament. Tbo present
representative is John Sinclair, Esq. Tho Lord Lieutenant of th»
county is tho Right Hon. tho Earl of Stair ; vice Lieutenant, R. F. F.
Campbell, Esq., and David Brand, Esq. is the sheriff. There are two
members for the county, tho gentlemen at present sitting being
the Hon. Hew Elliot, Corwar, for North Ayrshire, and tho Hon.
Grevillo Richard Vernon, Auchaus, Dundonald, for South Ayrshire.
An Academy, founded by subscription in 1798, stands foremost
amongst tbo public establishments. It is conducted by a rector and
four masters, with aide assistants. Tho management of the academy
was formerly vested in certain directors appointed by tho Crown,
by which the seminary was created a body corporate. The original
building has been taken down, having become too limited for tbo
number of pupils, and has been replaced by a very elegant building
of larger proportions, erected at a cost of about £10,000. The
management has now been transferred to the burgh School Board,
the school now ranking as one of the high class schools under the
Education Act. The education given is of a high order, and judged
by results at the universities there are few schools in Scotland of
the same class equal to it. Ayr library, which contains several
thousand volumes, affords rccreatiou to its numerous subscribers ;
it is now combined with tho public library and reading room in
Macneille buildings, Newmarket street, to which straogers are ad-
mitted on the payment of one penny each visit. Theao are also other
libraries of lesser note. Four newBpapers aro published in Ayr
namely, the Ayr Observer, on Tuesday and Friday ; the Ayrshire Post
on Friday ; tho Advertiser, on Thursday, and the An/its and Express*
on Wednesday and Saturday. Races aro held hero annually in the
autumu, an excellent pack of foxhounds hunts the county, and
spirited curling and bowling clubs are located here.
There are three churches of the Establishment iu tho town, two
in the parish of Newton, aud one iu Wallace town. The other
places of worship in Ayr and its vicinity are for the Free Church,
tho United Presbyterians, Episcopalians, Methodists, Moravians,
Original Seeders, Evangelical Unionists, and Roman Catholics. Tbo
charitable institutions are numerous aud liberally conducted ; tho
poor are assisted fronVfunds arising from lauds and donations; and
a dispensary gives medicine and surgical aid to the sick. A large
and handsome hospilal has been erected, also an industrial school,
an institution which has been most successfully conducted here and
has done much good. Besides these are a Sailors' Society, insti-
tuted in 1581; a Merchants' Society, established in 1655; a fund
formed in 1821 for decayed members, their widows and orphans; tho
Ayr Sabbath School Union Society; aud the Ayr Universal Society.
The Scottish bard. Robort Burns, whoso 100th anniversary was so
universally celebrated throughout the civilized world on the 25th
of January, 1850, was born about two miles south of Ayr, in a small
cotlago, which formerly belonged to the Incorporation of Shoe-
makers of Ayr, and was long let by them for a public house, but is
now the property of tho trustees of the Burns' Monument, who
have placed a person thcro to take charge of the building, a small
fee being taken from visitors f r admission. A collection of Burns'
relics has been formed, aud the grounds are neatly laid out,
making the whole much more worthy of the poet. About a quarter
of a mile from the bouse, a very elegant monument has been
erected to bis memory; it is placed on the banks of the river Boon,
amidst objects and scenery which had often inspired his muse;
and tho locality in which the scene was laid of his much-admired
poem " Tarn o' Shauter," lies in tho immediate neighbourhood of
the cottage. In tho summor season this place is visited by
strangers from nearly all parts, anxious to view the monument,
Alloway's Auld Haunted Kirk, aud tho Brig o' Boon. An elegant
and commodius parish church has been erected close to the monu-
ment, of which the Rev. S. Marcus Bill, m.a., is pastor. The
Chevalier Ramsay, author of " Cyrus' Travels," &c was a native of
this place. There are two weekly markets iu the town — Tuesday for
grain, cattle, and dairy produce, and Friday, for the sale of dairy
produce, poultry, and general business. Fairs are held on tbo
Thursday and Friday before the second Wednesday iu January; the
third Tuesday in April for hiring; the last Friday iu April; the
Thursday and Friday before the socond Monday in .Inly ; third
Tuesday in October for hiring; and on the second Thursday and
Friday in October. The parish of Ayr comprises 6,989 acres.
Population of the Parliamentary burgh in 1871, 17,851 ; in 1881,
20,812.

Nbwton parish is divided from that of Ayr by the river, which is
spanned by the two bridges already referred to. On the Newton or
north side of the river Ayr, are the principal manufactures of the
town. There are two chemical works, a carpet manufactory, lace
works, two shoo factories, and several other manufactnriug estab-
lishments. The railway communicates on this side with the har-
bour and new dock, and, in consequence, the mineral products of
the upper portion of the county are mostly shipped here. A very
largo increase- in the shipment of coal has recently taken place ;
indeed Ayr has taken the lead as a co.il shipping port on the west
coast. Acreage, 583. Population of the parish in 1871,4,877; in 1881,
6,511.
St. Quivox, a populous parish, in the district of Kyle, lies on
the banks of the Ayr river, and is bounded on the east by Tarbolton,
and on the west by Newton of Ayr and Monkton. Tho parish, which
is naarly all arable, is finely enclosed and beautified by plantations,
and contains 4,876 acres. Population in 1871, 6,069 ; in 1881, 7,352.
Wallacetown consists of a number of streets adjoining to New-
ton, and is in the parish of St. Quivox. A church of the Establish-
ment was erected in "Wallacetown in 1836; it is a very handsome
edifice, of tho Gothic order. The site is well chosen, being in a
populous neighbourhood, on the north-east bank of the river Ayr.
It was built by subscription, at an expense of nearly £1,500, and has
sittings for upwards of 800 persons. Nearly adjoining this church is
a Roman Catholic chapel, erected in 1826-7, at a cost of about £2,000 ;
it is a chaste structure, in the Gothic style, fronted with freestone.
Tho small town (or rather village) of Prestwick, or Prcstevicke,
is about two miles from Ayr. It was at one period a placo of some
consequence, haviDg been created a burgh of barony at an early date;
and its charter, which was renewed by James VI. in 1600, granted to
it a weekly market and an annual fair. Tho former has fallen into
disuse, from tho proximity of its more thriving neighbour, Ayr
The market cross, which is of considerable antiquity, still exists, and
it has its lock-up and council house. In the latter the bailies and
freemen meet quarterly to regulate the affairs of the burgh;
and the Prince of Wales is rccoguised as the superior of the town.
There are Established, Free, and United Presbyterian churches,
for the accommodation of the combined inhabitants of Monkton
and Prestwick. Prestwick can boast of its fine golf links, where
the ancient gamo has been played for a long time. There are now
two clubs — the Prestwick Golf Club, which has a large and hand-
some club house, and the St. Nicholas Club, both of them with largo
membership, and having among their numbers some of the finest
players in the country. Each club has separate links. Close to tho
village is a station on the Glasgow and So nth-Western line of
railway. PopfPation in 1871, 750, and in 1881, 1,064.
Monkton, a parish in the district of Kyle, lies on the sea coast,
betwixt Symington and Oundonald on the north, and Newton and
St. Quivox on the south. The parish formerly extended southward
to tho river Ayr, and comprehended tho present parish of Newton,
which was erected into a separate parochial district in the last
century; it now includes the ancient parish of Prestwick. The
village of Monkton is situated on tho high road to Glasgow, and
is distant four miles from Ayr. There is a station on tho Glasgow
and Soutb-Western railway about a mile from the village. Acreage
of parish, 8,971. Population of the joint parish of Monkton and
Prestwick in 1871, 1,744, and in 1881, 2,121.

BALLANTRAE is a small seaport, in tho parish of that name, 105
miles s.w. from Edinburgh, G8 e.w. from Glasgow, 81 s. of Ayr,
24 n.n.e. of Portpatrick, 18 n. of Stranraer, 13 s. by w. of Girvau,
and 25 s.s.w. of Maybole, situated near the south-western extremity
of the county, and on the banks of tbe river Stincbar, which here
falls into the Frith of Clyde. The approach to the town from
Stranraer is over the river, across which is an excellent stone bridge
of three well-proportioned arches. On the right, near the bridge,
stand the ruins of Ard-Stinchar Castle, formerly belonging to the
Hamilton family. Tho place is principally supported by its herring
and salmon fishery, the latter belonging to the Earl of Stair. The
chief local proprietor is James Hunter, Esq. j.p. of Glenapp, whose
mansion may be seen from tho village. Old Kirkcudbright kirk,
now in ruins, gives a mournful yet pleasing effect to the surrounding
scenery. A considerable number of new buildings have recently
been erected, amongst which tho new Free church is conspicuous.
Anew burial ground has been added to the old church. The Estab-
lished church is a neat modern building, ornamented with stone, in
the plain Gothio style. There are four schools in the parish. The
nearest court is hold at Girvan, where small debt3 are recoverable
only by summons. Ballantrae is without either lairs or weekly
markets. The acreage of the parish is 38,561, the population of
which in 1871 was 1,277, and in 1881, 1,442 ; that of the village being
426.
Colmonell is a parish of 47,490 acres, bounded on the north and
west by the mouth of the Clyde The village, which is pleasantly
situated and is much frequented by visitors during the summer
months, is three miles w. from Pinwhcvry station on the Girvau and
Portpatrick line, five miles e. by n. of Ballantrae, on the north bank
of the Stincbar — a stream famed for its salmon and trout. There
are Established and Free churches and Board schools in the villages
of Colmonell and Barbill, and also Board schools in the districts of,
Cowar, Lendalfoot, and Piuwberry, in this parish . The extent of this
district is 20 miles in length by nine broad. Population of the parish

on an eminence commanding a fine and extensive view of the beau-
tifully diversified country around, of which the Loth of Kilbimie,
at the distance of about a mile, forms a chaiming featnre. The
town, which contains many excellent houses, is gas-lighted and well
supplied with good water by gravitation, and presents a clean,
healthy appearance. In the immediate neighbourhood there
are several handsome private residences, and it is a place
of some considerable trade, being noted for its manufacture
of linen thread, of which a largt quantity is made here
by Messrs. Crawford Brothers, both for home and export
trade. The leather trade is of considerable importance, in the
tanning, currying and preparation of which several firms areactivcly
engaged. Another branch particularly deserving of notice is the
cabinet making and upholstery business, extensively carried on by
several enterprising firms, the more eminent being Messrs. John
Pollock, Mattbew Pollock, Robert Balfour, J. & J. Gardiner, and
Wilson & Gait ; the wholesale manufacture of couches, chairs, &c. by
machinery, affording constant employment to a numerous staff of
workmen. The manufacture of silk goods was formerly extensive,
but this has almost been entirely superseded by that of cotton and
woollen, in the weaving of which many of the inhabitants are now
employed by the manufacturers of Paisley and Glasgow. Silk
printing is in full operation at the establishment of Messrs. Hugh Mel-
ville & Co. at Roelmnk. The neighbourhood of Brit!] produces coal
and abundance of limestone. Lime burning is followed to a limited
extent, and rope making is also carried on by Messrs. Matthew Wylie
& Son. Three banking houses are established in the town; they are
branches of the Commercial Bank of Scotland, Limited, tbe Clydes-
dale Bank, Limiied.and the Union Bank of Scotland, Limited.
Railway accommodation is amply supplied by the Glasgow and
South-Weatem Railway Company and the Glasgow, Barrhead and
Kilmarnock Joint railway.

The whole of the parish of Beith is enclosed and sub-divided, and
is almost all arable. The tenants of this and the neighbouring
parish of D'anlop were formerly noted for their manufacture- of
cheese, known by the name of "Dunlop cheese," which was held
in as high estimation in Scotland as the cheese of Cheshire or
Gloucestershire is in England. The constabulary station with court
house adjoiniug, is a neat stone building, opened in 1884, erected
at a cost of about £1,500. The Sheriff's Small Debt Court is held on
tbe first Thursday in February, May, August and November, and that
for the Justice of the Peace on the first Monday in each month.
In 1807 a very handsome church of the Establishment, with tower,
was erected on the most elevated part of the town; its site is 343
feet above the level of the sea. It has since been enlarged by the
addition of a new wing, reseated, and thoroughly renovated at a co;*t
of nearly £3,000. The other places of worship are a Free church,
an Evangelical Union chapel, and two for United Presbyterian
congregations. The town house was built by subscription in 1817.
The upper part of the building contains a court room and reading
room ; the lower part consists of shops, the rents of which are
applied to purposes of public benefit. There are several well-
attended schools, besides one or two private establishments. At
Giffen, a short distance from the town, are the ruins of the once
stately castle of the Montgo merles ; there U also another ruin at
j HassehVad ; and at the top of Cuff hill, a considerable eminence,
} is a druidical remain, known by the name of " Rockingstoue."
1 Two large stone coffins, supposed to he likewise of druidical oiigin,
j were discovered bore many years ago. The market is held on
I Friday, and the fairs on the first Fridays in January and February,
n'ld first Friday after the 12th of May (old style), on the 30th of
, August, and the first Friday after tbe 12th November (old style).
I The entire parish of Beith (a small portion of which is in Renfrew-
shire) contains an area of 11,222 statute acres, having in 1871 a
'population of 6,233, and in 1881,6,555; of this number 4,087 were
returned for the town.

AYRSHIRE
CATRINE IN SORN, AND MAUCHLINE.
/KATRINE, is a thriving manufacturing village in the parish of Sorn,
^ 72 miles w.s.w. of Edinburgh, 32 a, of Glasgow, 11 n.e. of Ayr,
12 s.s.w. of Kilmarnock, 5 n. from OH Cumnock, and 4 N. from
Ochiltree; pleasantly situated nearly in the centre of tho county,
on the north bank of the river Ayr. This place has risen from in-
significance to a considerable town. Iu 1787 its site contained only a
blacksmith's shop and a meal mill. Tho cause of this rapid
increase was the crectiou of cotton -works by the late Claud
Alexander, Esq., of Eallochmyle, who having acquired a large for-
tune in the East Indios, purchased the land for the purpose of estab-
lishing works thereon, by which ho might increase Ihe value of his
property here; The business is now carried on by Messrs. James
Fiulay & Co. The machinery of the mills is driven by two largo
water wheels, which wore erected by tho late Sir William Fairbairn,
of Manchester, in 1828, They are each 12 feet wide, and 50 foet in
diameter. Both wheels work on one shaft and have a power of 500
horses. These extensive works employ a large number of hands.
There is a publio library, the funds of which were raised by subscrip-
tion ; it contains about 3,000 volumes, and has upwards of 200 mem-
bers. Schools wer» erected at a cost of £2,000 ; they are in the
Elizabethan style, and are situated on the south side of the river
Ayr. Sorn Castle, about a mile and a half Irotn Catrine, once the
Beat of the London family, is now the property and residence of
James Somervell, Esq. J.P., who with Henry Farquhar, Esq., the
heirs of of Lady Boswell, and Major-General Sir Claud Alexander,
Bart., are the principal heritors of the parish of Sorn, which abounds
with coal, limestone and ironstone. Dngald Stewart, Esq., the late
celebrated professor of moral philosophy in Edinburgh, was born in
the neighbourhood of Catrine.
The parish of Sorn is bounded on the east by Muirkirk, on tho
south by Auchinleck, on the west by Mauchline, and on the north
by Galstou and Slrathaven; its form is nearly square, measuring
about six and a half miles each way. and containing 19,195 acres.
Formerly this parish formed a part of the extensive one of Mauch-
line—the parish church standing about three miles distant from
that village. The land, originally moorish, has been much improved
and well unclosed, and there are fine plantations near the Ayr, which
river runs through the parish from east to west. Population of the
parish iu 1871, 4,032, and iu 1381, 4,255 ; Catrine containing 2,038 of
this number.
Mauchline, a considerable town and capital of its parish, id
two and a half miles W. from Catrine, situated in a pleasant part of
the county, and surrounded on all sides by a delightful country
interspersed with several elegaut mansions. Iu the manufacture oi
a beautiful description of fitucy boxes, &c. in eycamora wood,
V tartan, &c, for which this town has long been noted, two firms aro
engaged— Messrs. W. & A. Smith and Messrs. J.Davidson & Son, the
former having long enjoyed the patronage of royalty; whilst
Messrs. T. & A. Kay have a world-wide reputation for the manufac-
ture of their famous curling stones. The buildings of the town are
neat and possess an air of pleasing variety. Mauchline Castle ia an
ancient structure, well deserving the notico of tho antiquarian.
The parish school is well conducted and numerously attended.
Burns resided several years at Mossgiel, a small farm, about half a
mile to tho north of Mauchline, on the left side of the road from
thence to Kilmarnock. The steading may still be seen, environed
by a few trees, as well as the fields, in traversing which, it is said,
ho composed some of his best poems. His chief resort, when ho
visited Mauchline, was the public-house of John Dow — a thatched
house of two fiats, nearly opposite the church yard gate, now
entirely re-built and occupied as houses and Bhops. The cottage)
of " Poosie Nancy," or Mrs. Gibson, the scene of the " Jolly
Beggars," stands more immediately opposite the church yard gate.
Mauchline kirk, the scene of the "Holy Fuir," was of the pure barn
species. There is now an elegant church, in the Gothic style, with
a steeple. In the surrounding cemetery may been seen the graves
of the Rev. Mr. Auld, Nanse Tinuock, Mary Morrison, and several
other persons who figure in tho satires of Burns, and on the banks
of tho Ayr, at a short distance from Mauchline, is the scene of some
of tho bard's more pleasing poems— hid lyrics particularly. Fairs
are held first Thursday after the 4th of February, first Wednesday
aftor 18th May, fourth Wednesday in June, first Wednesday iu
August, tho 26th of September, the 4th of November, and the fourth
Wednesday iu December. Tho parish contains 8,907 acres, and had
in 1871 a population of 2,435 persons, aud in 1881, 2,504, of which
latter number 1,016 belonged to the town.

adupted building, suilicieully capacious for a congregation of
1.0U0 persons; there are likewise three Frco churches, a Koman
Catholic chapel, and several public schools. A now Town Hall is
now (1883) being erected in the ceutro of the town, from plaus by
Mr. Allan Stevenson, of Ayr. The front is of Ballochmyle stono.and

CUMNOCK (OLD) AND AUCHINLECK,
WITH THE VILLAGES OF CRONBERRY, DARNCONNER, LUGAR, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
CUMNOCK (or Old Cumnock) is a considerable market and post
town, in the parish of its name, 60 miles s.w. of Edinburgh,
16 e. of Ayr, and the same distance s.s.e. of Kilmarnock, situated on
a line of road between Dumfries, on the south-east and Glasgow on
the north, 44 miles n.w. from the former town and 38 s. from the
latter. It participates in the advantages of railway communication
With all parts, the Glasgow and South-Western lino having a station
half a mile east, and the Ayr and Douglas line a station a quarter
of a mile south of the town. The principal part of the town
occupies the site of what was formerly the churchyard. The old
cnurohyard at Barrhill, near the town, was at one period the place
of execution, and contains the remains of Ihree persons who were
ehet on the spot, in 1685, by a party of Highlanders, for their
adherence to the covenanted work of reformation; and the corpse
of Pedan, a martyr of the covenanting body, who died in the parish
of Sorn, was exhumed by a party of Dragoons, after being interrel
Bix weeks in the neighbouring churchyard of Auchinleck, and
ignominiously buried at the gallows foot. A new cemetery was
formed a few years ago a little to the south of the town, at a cost
of about £1,000. The town, which is of an irregular triangle form,
consists of a square and several streets, in which are a number of
respectable establishments in the various branches of the retail
trade. It is situated in a deep sheltered hollow, at the confluence
of the Glaisnock and Lugar wafers ; it was celebrated for the
manufacture of those beantiful wooden snuff boxes— a species of
trade which originated here above 70 years since, and, with some
few exceptions, as Laurencekirk, Catrine and Mauchline, was con-
fined to Cumnock. This branch is now extinct here, The
manufacturing of various kinds of woollen fabrics, and wool spinning
and dyeing have been introduced, and promise an important addi-
tion to the trade and industry of the place. Two engineering firms
are actively engaged in the manufacture of agricultural implements
— Messrs. George M'Cartney & Co. having gained a degroe of
celebrity in the latter branch. Three banks are in operation, viz., a
branch of the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, ono of the Bank of Scotland,
and one of the Royal Bank of Scotland ; there is also a public library,
established in 1792, by a company of shareholders.
The places of worship are a church of the Establishment, a Free
church, one for the United Presbyterians, a chapel for Independents,
one for the Baptists, recently erected at a cost of £800, and a Roman
Catholic chapel, the cost of which was defrayed by the Marquis of
Bate. In 1885 a handsome Town Hall was opened ; it is erected in the
Grecian style of architectnre,from plans prepared by Mr. R. S.Ingram,
of Kilmarnock, at a cost of nearly £3,000, towards which the Marquis
of Bute contributed £500 and a free site- A few years ago the Mar-
chioness of Bnte built and furnished a hospital here at an expense of
over £2,000; the whole cost being borne by her ladyship. Into this
excellent institution the injured and the distressed of every religious
creed aro admitted with equal readiness. The sum of £20 aunuallv,
left for free education by the late Charles Duncan, merchant, of
London, a native of this parish, has now, by the Commissioners of
Endowments, been mostly applied lo higher education in the public
school, a commodious building of recent erection, and costing nearly
£6,000. The castle of Terreuzean, now in ruins, is in the neighbour-
hood ; it gives the title of baron to the family of Dumfries. About
two miles e. from Cumnock is the village of Lugar. Here aro situated
the works of tke Eglinton Iron Co., who have built for their workmen
and their families numerous comfortable and neat cottages, forming
a considerable village. There is also a Co-operative Society,
established for the purpose of supplying all necessaries to those who
are employed by tho Company, and there are also one or two other
respectable shops and a corn mill. The market at Cumnock is held
held on Thursday, and the fairs on the fourth Thursday after
Candlemas, the Thursday after the 6th of March, the Wednesday
after the 6th of Juue, the 13th of July, and the 27th of October.
The parish of Old Cumnock comprises 14,140 acres ; population in
1871, 4,041, and in 1881, 4,861, of which number the town contained
3,345.
Aucihnleck, signifying a field or rock, is a parish 18 miles in
length by only about two in broadtb, comprising 24,129 acres, watered
on its northern extremity by the Ayr, and by the Lugar on the south.
Coal aud limestone aro produced hero, but the soil is for the most
part rather unproductive. Tho village, a respectable little place, is
situated somewhat above a mile n. from Old "Cumnock, and about
three from Sorn and Catrine. Close to the village is a station on tho
Glasgow aud South- Western line of railway. There is an establish-
ment here for the manufacture of snuffboxes. Theplaces of worship
aro an Established church aud one belonging to a congregation of
Original Seceders, and a chapel for Roman Catholics. At Birnie
Kuowe, about two miles from the village, the ruins of Auchinleck
Castle stand in an angle formed by the Dippleburn and Lugar;
and in the neighbourhood is the Place of Auchinleck, a handsome
mansion, erected in the last century, by Lord Auchinleck senator
of tho college of justice, and father of the eminent and amiable
James Boswell, Esq., the friend and biographer^of Johnson; tho house
is still the property of the Boswell family. A well attended fair
for the sale of lambs is held annually on the last Tuesday in August.
Population of the parish in 1871, 6,174, and in 1881, 6,681, of which
number 1,528 belonged to tho village.
Lugar, before mentioned, is situated in the above parish, as is
also Croneerrt and Darnconner, both populous mining villages,
the former about one milo n.e. and tho latter about two miles n.w.
of Lugar. There aro stations at the two former places on tho Ayr,
Mauchline and Muirkirk section of railway. Population iu 1681 :
Lugar, 1,353; Cronberry, 799 ; Darnconner, 550.

DALMELLINGTON,
CRAIG MARK, WATERSIDE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
DALMELLINGTON is a parish, about 10 miles in length by three
in breadth, containing 17,783 acres. Tho town, or village, a
bnrgh of barony, is 72 miles s.w. from Edinburgh, 49 s. of Glasgow,
42 n.w. of Dumfries, 24 s.s.e. of Kilmarnock, 15 b.e. of Ayr, 14 E. of
Maybole, 12 s. of Old Cumnock, and 7 e. of Straitou; This thriving
little plftco is pleasantly situated ou tho north bauk of the water of
Doon, and near to tho base of an eminence, from tho summit of
which a fine view is obtained of a varied charactor, comprising rude
and lofty mountains and the Boftor features of cultivation. Besides
the trade enjoyed by tho town, it derives some advantago from being
tho resort of parties of pleasure and for fishing. Those who wish to
partake of the latter amusement will find on tho banks of Loch
Doon neat boats furnished by tho proprietors of the inns at this
place— the Black Bull, tho Cross Keys, and tho Eglinton. Tho loch is
a boautifi.il sheet of wator, with a hard rocky shore extending eight
miles in length and one in breadth, abounding in trout of fine
flavour. On an itdaud in the lake are tho remains of Balloch Castle.
Some years since a fishing party discovered, at the bottom of tho
loch, what appeared to bo boats, and having obtained the necessary
assistance they succeeded in raising thrco canoes, tho largest
measuring 24 feet in length by four in breadth, hown out of a solid
log of oak. Two wore much [decayed, but tho third was so little

Dalmellington is a public library and a reading room well furnished
with standard works, periodicals, and newspapers ; a sum has been
left in trust for the support of the latter, and the education of a
certain number of children. Situated about three miles north-west
from Dalmellington, on tho road to Ayr, are the extensive Dal-
mellington iron works and collieries. There are eight blast
furnaces. This company not only built the villages of Craig Mark.
and Waterside, but also many other houses situate on Lethan
Hill, Benwhat, and Kerse. The village of Waterside is lighted by
gas. The total population of their houses alone, which are occupied
exclusively by their own workpeople and families, who occupy 800
houses, is upwards of 4,500. Thoro are schools for the children of
their workpeople at Craig Mark, Waterside, Kerse, Lot ban Hill, and
Benwhat, tho one at Waterside being one of tho finest private schools
in tho country. Tho company have stores for supplying the work-
people with tho necessaries they require, thoy having been paid
weekly for over 20 years. The places of worship are the Established
and Free churcheB, an Evangelicul Union chapel, and one for
Roman Catholics. The school is under the School Board, and is a
neat Btono building, built in 1875, to accommodate 270 scholars, and,
with tho bouso for the sohoolmastor, cost about .£3,000. The parish
of Dalmolliogton had in 1871 a population of 6,1G5, and in 1881,
0,383, tho town containing 1,437.

DALRY AND NEIGHBOURHOOD.
TV\LRY is a parish in the district of Cunninghanie. The town is CO
SJ miles w. l.y s. from Ediuburgh, 25 (22 by rail)s.w. of Glasgow, 1G
s.s.w. of Paisley, five s.w. of Beitb, four n. of Kilwinning, and seven
N. of Saltcoats ; pleasantly silnated on a rising ground, surrounded
by tho rivers Caaf, Kye and Garnock, which run in different directions
near tho village. The town consists of twelve streets, three of which
diverge from a centre, forming a small square j many of the houses
ore well built, the Bbops are neat, the town is lighted with gas, and
supplied with gravitation water, at a cost of £10,600, capable of
affording 18O,0M gallons por day. Thero are threo rosorvoirs In this
parish, that at Campbill and Boutonburn supplies Paisley ; that at
Munnocn is for Irvine and district; and tho one at Auld Muir for tho
town of. Dairy. The sanitary arrangoment^ are advantageously
carried oulj by tho local authorities, Tho branches of manufacture
exist ins in tho town and pariBh are thoso of worsted spinning (oxton-
Bivoly carried on by Mossrs. Biggart & Co. Limited, Bridgend Mills),
and blanliot manufacturing, by Mossrs. Kyle, Aitlten & Gardiner, at
Kycsido Mills (tho largest in Scotland), also tweods and hosiery by
other firms. Tho manufacture of wool may now bo said to bo tho
principal trado of this town. Two banks aro established bore, and
lime, coal, and ironstone abound in the neighbourhood. One limo-
stouo quarry, at Auohiens-keith, two milos from Dairy, has boon
reported by scientific mon to ho particularly rich in geological
remain B. Thoro ore sovoral public Iiousob, and threo hotels. Near
to Dairy are oxtousivo iron oro and. coal mines belonging to tho
Kglintdii Iron 'Jo. and Messrs. Merry & Ouniuglmuib. To tho west
is a beautiful natural cascade, which has a curious and singular
appearance during tho continuancu of frost. In tho contro of tho
town tbore was erected a few yoars ago, at a considerable oxponso,
a very handsome granite fountain, prosoujod by Thomas Biggart,
Esq., of liaidland Hill, for the use of the inhabitants.
Two miles from Dairy is Blair House, an auoiont pile of architec-
ture, regarded as the oldest inhabited mansion in Scotland which
has notlieen re-built, a portion of which retains the date of 1208,
though the .original tower oven datos back to 1180. Both the exterior
and interior aro remarkable for their anoiout' appearance, and arc
in splendid preservation, tho walls being of an extraordinary thick-
ness. Te facilitate communication from ono part of tho house to
another, a passage four foot wide and thirty foot long was cut
through a wall fourtoou feet in thicknoss, and though tho under-
taking was refused by sovoral contractors, was successfully oxecutod
undorthe direction of Cnptnin W. F. Blair, K.N., tho present resident,
who courteously porruits strangers to inspect the beautifully laid
out grounds and his line museum of foreign and British cnriositios.
Horo is also a cave, ovidently tho work of uaturo, and well deserving
tho examination of visitors to this district. It is about 103 foot in
length, and from G to 12 feet in height ; the roof is encrusted with
petrofraotious, and over tho ontranco projects a vast rock, 80 foot by
27. Tho iuterior resembles Gothic arched work, and near the middlo
It oxpands iuto a spacious chamber, 85 feet long by 12 broad, and 12
feet in hoight. Informer times popular superstition poopled it with
elvos; it accordingly received the appollation of " olph-house; " ia
later days, uudor tho arbitrary reign of Charles II., it afforded a
refuge to tho covenantors of this parish from tho violonoo of their
infuriated porsocutors. This cavo was supposod to havo givon
rofugo to Wallaco after tho burning of tho " Barns of Ayr," and also
his co-patriot Sir Bryoo Blair, who was oxocutod at Ayr by tho
English for tho part ho took with Wallace in tho war of iudepondenco.
Tho man who attoudod and supplied thorn with provisions was
afterwards granted the farm, known by tho narao of " Wallaco
Fanld" adjoining tho cavo, which remained iu possession of hla
heirs until tho oud of last century- In Dairy pariah is also Oamphill,
and Rontingburn, where tho Scottish army is said to havo encamped
provious to the battlo of Largs, in 1268. Dairy bostows the title of
Baron upon tho eldest son of tho Earl of Glasgow.
Among tho placos of worship is tho Established churoh— robnilt
and considerably enlarged, at a cost of noarly £0,000. Tho stylo is
Gothic, designed and superintended by Mr. David Thomson,
architoct, Glasgow. It is surmounted by a lofty spiro, aud altogether
its general apnearanoe is very attractive. This edifice contains four
beautiful stained glass windows, which were made at the Royal
factory at Munich. Tho principal ouo was presented by Captain
Blair. n.N. of Blair; a second by Messrs. Buird & Co. of Glasgow ;_
the thirdjwas tho gift of tho Misses Noil, of Swindridgo Muir, in
momory of I heir brother General Noil, who fell leading on his troops
at the relief of Lucknow; aud tho fourth was presented by
subscription from loading heritors of tho parish. An auxiliary
church of tho Establishment, a Frco church, a United l'rosbyteriau
church, and a Roman Catholic chapel aro tho other placos of worship.
A memorial mission hall is now (188S) in course of erection. Tho
building, which is of freestone, and favours tho Gothic stylo of
aroliitocturo, is estimated to cost between £3,000 and £1,000, which
is being entirely defrayed by the Kev. Robert Stcvonson, n.D. of this
town. Thero aro several puhlio bcIiooIs, one of which, formerly tho
parochial school, but nbw known as tho West End Public School,
has been considerably enlarged, at a cost of £8,001), aud will
accommodate about 700 children. Tho weekly market is hold on
Thursday, and the annual fair on tho last day of July. Acroago of
parish, 19,281; population in 1871, 10,885; in 1881, 10,215] of tho
atter number 5,010 were returnod as belonging to tho town.

GALSTON AND NEIGHBOURHOOD.
G ALSTON is a parish of 15,243 acres in the district of Kyle-Stewart.
The town is eligibly situated on the left bank of the Irvine, on
the road from Edinburgh to Ayr, and from Dumfries to Glasgow ; it
is 22 s. from the latter city, 16 n.n.e. from Ayr, and five e. from
Kilmarnock; seated in a hallow, sheltered on all sides by rising
grounds. The industrious classes are chiefly employed in weaving
and the manufacture of lace. There is a corn mill, and "lie for paper
mill boards— the latter erected early iu the fifteenth century. An-
otber occupation is also presented to the labouring classes, that of
raising coal, of which a large quantity is obtained from the estates
of the Duke of Portland, who is superior of the parish. Thero are
excellent schools. Blair's school occupies a handsome building,
opened in. 1841, under the will of the lafe Charles Blair, Esq., of
Galston, who bequeathed certain heritable property, which was to
accumulate until the income amounted to £200 per annum. This
has now been considerably increased, through which 120 children of
either sex are educated and clothed for a term of four years. Under
the Endowment Act it is now incorporated with the public school-.
There are likewise four Sabbath evening schools, wherein upwards
of 500 children receive instruct inn. There is an excellent institution,
which was erected in 1874, at a cost of over &S,000, given by Miss
Brown, of Lannuc, and is called Brown's institute. It consists of a
spacious reading room, well supplied with the daily newspapers,
periodicals, &c; a library, cuntaiug between 2,000 and 8,000 volumes;
and some recreation rooms for various kinds of amusement.
The places of worship are an Established church, an Evangelical
Union chapel, and a United Presbyterian church, of Gothic architec-
ture, which cost about £1,100. The Roman Catholics have now a beau-

tiful place of wnrsbip, dedicated to St. Sophia, which was opened in
December, 1886. The style oi architecture is strictly Byzantine,
Dr. R. Rowland Anderson, of Edinburgh, being the architect. ThiB
edifice is the munificent gift of Lord Bute, and has already cost
upwards of £10,000. A presbytery is now in course of erection
adjoining the church. For the Free Church congregation a hand-
some structure, built of red sandstone, with a Gothic front,
has this year (1888) been erected, the coBt, amounting to about
£2,500, being defrayed partly by subscription and partly by a grant
from the Ferguson Bequest fnnd. The architect was Mr. J.B.Wilson,
of Glasgow. The parish extends about 13 miles in leugth, by four to
five in breadth, lying in the upper part of the county, contiguous to
Lanarkshire, and separated by the Irvine from the paris'i of Loudona
on the north, Mauchline and Sorn bounding it on the south.
The Burface is diversified with hills, but the laud is generally arable,
and there is a considerable quantity of wood. The district is
watered by some small tributaries of the Irvine and the river Avon,
which rises in the upper part of the parish. About a mile from the
town is Loudoun Castle, a largo and magnificent structure in the
modern castellated style; this, together with the old castlo o'
Cossnock and'Barr, surrounded as they are by natural and artificial
woods, highly enhance the beauty of the district, in which is also
Patio's Mill, celebrated iu the delightful song called " The Lass of
Patie's Mill." The annual fairs are hold on the third Thursday in
April, the first Thursday in June, and the last Wednesday in November,
Population of the parish in 1881, 5,961 ; of which number the town
contained 4,085.

GIRVAN AND NEIGHBOURHOOD.
GIRVAN is a parish of 14,580 acres, in the district of Carrick. The
town,a burgh of barony, is 90 miles w.s.w. of Edinburgh, 56 s.w.
of Glasgow, 85 n.n.w. of Portpatrick, 81 n.n.e. of Stanraer, 21 s. by w.
of Ayr, 13 n. by e. of Ballantrae, 12 s.s.w. of Mavbole, and sis s.w. of
Dailly, situated on the left bank of the Garvan or Girvan, near to
its influx with the sea, and at a point of exactly opposite the islet called
Ailsa Craig. This rock, which is II miles distant, rises out of
the Firth of Clyde, to the height of 1,075 feet. It is two and a half
miles in circumference, and the top, which is conical, is covered
with a luxuriant crop of heath, grass, ferns, and other plants, which
feed great numbers of goats and rabbits. All around, on the
precipitous Bides of the rock, uniformly nestle almost inconceivable
numbers of solan geese, puffins, and gannets, which flutter about,
and produce an incessant deafening noise. On a long terrace or
shoulder, of the craig, at the elevation of 200 feet from the base,
stands a deserted square toWer, or castellated bouse, still very perfect
as a ruin. Higher up issue two sparkling and beautiful springs of
water, one of which forms a marshy plain, covered with various
plants, amongst others the hydrocatile vulgaris, of extraordinary
magnitude. The rock (which is in the parish of Dailly) belongs
to the Marqriis of Ailsa, who draws from it a yearly rental of £31),
which is paid by the feathers of the fowls and the rabbit skins.
Naturalists and botanists would find a visit of value, in increasing
their knowledge of the vegetable world. The harbour of Girvan,
which underwent considerable improvements in 1869-70, and Btill
further and more extensive in 1881-83, at the expense of the
Harbour Commissioners, is now considered' safe and convenient
for shipping. Large quantities of grain of various kinds are annually
exported hence, chiefly to Liverpool and Glasgow. The steamer
"LochEtive" carries goods to and from Glasgow weekly. The
trade in coal and lime is important— the mines of the former and the
quarries of the latter being numerous in the neighbourhood. Form-
erly the chief business of the town consisted in the manufacture of
a variety of cotton and woollen goods for the Glasgow and Paisley
markets, which then afforded employment to the bulk of the
inhabitants ; the principal trade of the place now is herring fishing,
which occurs twice a year, beginning in December and May.
The government of the town is vested in two bailies and twelve
councillors, three of the latter being chosen annually, ou the
retirement or otherwise of the like number, on the 12t.h of October ;
the Countess of Stair is the superioress of the borough. Girvan is
a station on the Ayr, Maybole and Girvan branch of the Glasgow
and South-Western Railway. In October, 1871, a new line of railway
was commenced, called the Girvan and Portpatrick lino. It is 31 J4
miles in length, and was opened in 1876, and greatly facilitates
commerco between Glasgow and the North of Ireland.
The places of worship are as follows, viz. — Two churches of the
Establishment, one for United Presbyterians, a Free uh'nrch, and
one each for Episcopalians, Roman Catholics, and Weslcyan
Metbodists, The Episcopalian church is a neat structure of Gothic
architecture, the interior being beautifully decorated; it has also
a very commanding pulpit, and was erected at a cost of ,£1,100.
The M'Keehnie Institute, erected at the corner of Dalrymple street
and Ailsa street, was the gift of the late Mr. Thomas M'Recbnic, in
memory of his deceased brother, R. M'Kechnie, and himself. The
building, which consists of library, ladies' and gentlemen's reading
rooms, smoking and coiumitteo rooms, is of red'sandstoiio from the
famous Ballochmyle Quarries, the architects being Messrs. M'Kissack
and Rowau, of Glasgow. It was completed in July,'lS88, tbe coal)
being about £8,000. To the parochial school, which is now under a
parish School Board, a valuable donation was mado by the late
Mrs. Crawford, of Ardmillan, who left the interest of £1,000 for ever
to the teachers, for the education of forty children, subject only to
the deduction of two guineas, to be distributed in small prizes
amongst the pupils. The same munificent lady left also the interest
of £1,000, of which £12 is given to the precentor of the church, for
the instruction of ten of the children in sacred music, and the
balance to be divided among the poor householders not receiving
parochial relief. There are also two other schools here under the
burgh School Board, one of which was built in 1875, at a cost of
£3,500, for 550 scholars. A market, chiefly for grain, is held on
Monday ; and the fairs are on the first Mondays in April and October,
for stock, hiring servants, and general business. Population of
Girvan in 1871, 4,791, and in 1881, 4,505, and of the parish, 5,480.

IRVINE,
WITH THE PARISH OF DREGHORN AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
IRVINE, the most ancient royal bnrgh in Scotland, is the seat ol a
presbytery, and as regards population and importance, tho
second town in the district of Cunuiughame. The town is agreeably
situated on rising ground on the north bank of the river Irvine,
about a mile from its junction with the Garnock water and the sea,
and upon the line ol the Glasgow and South- Western railway. It is
distant from Edinburgh 67 miles w.s.w., 25 s.s.w. of Glasgow, 11 N.
of Ayr, 11 s. of Beith, and 7 w. of Kilmarnock. Irvine unites with
Ayr, and with Campbeltown, Inveraray, and Oban in Argyleshire, in
returning one member to Parliament, who is styled the member for
the Ayr Burghs; the present representative is John Sinclair, Esq.
The bnrgh is governed by a provost, four bailies, a dean of guild,
treasurer, and eleven councillors. A bailie court is held every law-
ful day, as business may require; and one for the recovery of small
debts and for the trial of criminal cases before the justices, is also
held every Monday. The Dean of Guild Court is held on Tuesday.
A sheriff court is held every alternate month. There are several
commodious inns, the King's Arms and the E glint on Arms, High
street, for commercial or posting purposes, aro both well worthy of
support. The market is held on Monday, and the fairs on the first
Tuesday in May, and on the third Monday in August commences the
Mary mass fair. Formerly the first four days of the week were set
apart as fairs, each for some particular goods and merchandise.
Marymas's Monday was at one time an important wool fair ; now
the horse market on Wednesday is the principal part of the fair,
which is si ill well attended. Tho Marymaes races are held on the
Saturday following the third Monday of August, and the Eglinton
Hnnt Meeting (over Bogside course) generally in the beginning of
April. The Town Moor forma an excellent camping ground for the
annual training of the 4th Battalion Argyll and Sutherland High-
landers (Renfrew Militia), detachments of Royal Artillery occasion-
ally, and the Lanarkshire Volunteer Artillory. The question as to
whether Irvine or Barry, on the east cost of Scotland, should be
selected as the site for the Scottish National Camp of Instruction
for Artillery Volunteers, has recently agitated the Artillery Volunteer
regiments in Scotland, and is considered still so far open. Eglinton
Castlo, the seat of the Earl of Eglinton and Winton, stands within
two miles of the burgh, and is famous in connection with the grand
tournament held here in 1839. The noble earl permits the greatest
freedom of access to the grounds and gardens ; admission, however,
is only obtainable by ticket, which may be had from Mr. C. March-
land, publisher, Irvine.
The situation of the town is dry and healths', being altogether of a
sandy bottom. All the streets are broad and airy. The old steeple,
with court house, council chambers, and gaol, that occupied the centre
of the main street, have been removed. The new municipal build-
ings, including council chambers, court house, Ac. which have been
erected from a beautiful design, form an elegant structure, and are
much admired. The parish church is a handsome building of large
dimensions, with aspire and clock, and stands on rising ground,
n the centre of the churchyard. The other places of worship are a
Free church, two for United Presbyterians, one for Roman Catholics,
and one for Baptists, all situated in the burgh proper. At the north
end of the town an academy, Bnrrounded by extensive play-grounds,
was erected iu 1814, at an expense of £2,250, of which sum tile burgh
paid £1,633, and the remainder was made up by public subscription.
A royal charter was obtained for the proper establishment and
government of this institution, which is an honour and ornament
to Irvine. Many students who have eminently distinguished them-
selves at the Scotch and English Universities were educated here.
The rector has a staff of male and female teachers under him, by whom
are taught Latin, Greek, the modern languages, mathematics, and
drawing, besides the usual branches of education. Many valuable
prizes are awarded at the annual examinations ; and recently the
sum of £1,000 was left to this institution by John Ferguson, Esq.,
of Cairnbrock, the interest of which is proposed to be given annually
in bursaries, at the disposal of his trustees. The pupils attending
this academy have been particularly successful in carrying off the
first bursaries and prizes at Glasgow College. Besides private
ladies' seminaries of a superior class, there are tho public and
industrial schools jiud Board scbo.ls. There is also ;i Literary
and Social Institute, woll provided with reading and recrea- i
lion rooms and a largo hall for public meetings and I
entertainments. The Templars' Hall here was tho first erection i
of its kind in Scotland; there is also an Oranfee and Protectant
Hall, lno other principal erections are tho Ruyal, Clydesdale, and j
■iika, all handsome architectural buildings. The grain
stores of J. F. Longmuir & Co. are extensive and substantial
[Structures, and are, perhaps, the largest in Cuuninghame. Coal
I pits have been successfully sunk in the burgh land.
On the south side of the river, but connected with the town by a
fine stone bridge of four arches, is an extensive suburb called
Fullarton, but in the parish of Dundocald. It abuts oh the Frith
of Clyde, and includes the harbour and quay, and contains a
shipbuilding yard, three steam sawmills, naphtha works, two iron
forges, and two large engineering and foundry yards. Four large
[ chemical and chrome works have been erected near the beach,
whioh give employment to nearly 1,000 men. The British Dynamite
Company (now Nobel's Explosives Co. Limited), have also erected
works on the north side of the river. The harbour haB been much
improved, at very considerable expense, and the trade has in conse-
quence greatly increased, especially in the export of coal. The
places of worship in Fullarton district of the burgh are the Free and
the Established churches. Iu 1881 an Act of Parliament waB obtained
for extending the boundaries of the burgh, and for other purposes.
By this act Fullarton, sometimes called the Halfway, was amalga-
mated with the burgh, bo that the whole town is now under the
jurisdiction of the municipality. Some years ago the local
authorities of the burgh of Irvine and the parish ef Dundonald
[combined in promoting a scheme for supplying the town with
gravitation water, and in August, 1878, the water was introduced.
Arrangements have since been made for giving supplies of water to
the towns of Kilwinning, Steveneton and Saltcoats, fi'om the Irvine
; Water Works, which were, by the Irvine Burgh Act, 1881, transferred
to the Corporation. About .£70,000 has been expended on their
I construction, and the further extensions of the works now projected
will cost about £5,000 additional.
Irvine is a borough of great antiquity; the beginuing of Irvine
is the very beginning of history. Before Robert the Bruce was,
before Sir William Wallace was, during the time of William the
Lion, it is supposed that there was a "town" called Irvine. The
earliest mention of Irvine is contained in the account of a dispute
between Sir Ralph de Eglinton and the town of Irvine, and some-
where towards the close of the twelfth century a charter was given
to it. During the time of Alexander II. acbarter exiBted, which was
confirmed by Robert the Bruce. From another similar document, it
appears the burgesses were in possession of the entire barony of
Cuuninghame and Largs. The first great event in its history was
the foundation of the convent or monastery of the Carmelites, about
1300. The sect of the Buchanites had also its origin in Irvine ; and
it is recorded that in 1G18 four women were executed in one day, and
in the month of March, 1640, there were twelve women executed in
Irvine for the crime of witchcraft, and fifty years afterwards ona
women was severely punished for acting as a spaewife for the
recovery of stolen goods. From 1018 to 1640 Irvine was the scene
of the labours of David Dickson, the minister who connected Glasgow
with Irvine, eminent as a divine, and author of a poem that moved
life in the memory of religious men. He left Irvine ti» fill the office
of principal of Glasgow Universily. A few years ago the manse he
occupied at Portbead (corner of Kirk vennel) was taken down in the
course of street improvements. Ou 81st December, H 06, Blackwood
and M'Coul, two covenanters, were hanged at Irvine for being at
Pentland. William Sutherland, the hangman of Irvine, refused to
execute these men. Irvine is also the birthplace of James Mont-
gomery, author of <; The World before the Flood," &c, but more widely
knowu as the author of tho hymn commencing " Prayer is the soul's
sincere desire," and many other sacred poems ; he is genorally styled
" the Christian Poet." He was born 4th November, 1771, in a little
back dwelling still standing in the street leading to the railway
station. This property was some time ago purchased by some
enthusiastic members of the Irvine Burns' club with the view of
preserving it. A tablet has been recently placed on the building,
tuarkiug it as the birthplace of Montgomery. In 1841 he visited his
native town, and was received withe very mark: of respect. In this
town Burns, Scotland's national poet, served his time a& a flax
dresser, and the house in which he wrote, and was burnt out
of, is still pointed out to strangers. John Gait, author of the
" Annals of the Parish," &c, was born at Irvine, on 2nd of May, 1770;
the house then occupied by his father's family was taken down in
1858, and the office of tho Uniou Bank erected on its sito; a neat
tihlqt in the Bunk office commemorates this circumstance. Here
was invented the screw propellor so early as 1824 or 1825, by Messrs.
W. M'Orii'ick, Maxwell Dick, and James Steadmau. Population of
tho town in 1871, 6,886, and iu 1881, 8,517.

KILBIRNIE AND NEIGHBOURHOOD.
KILBIRNIE, or KiLBtTRNBY, is a populous village in that parish,
district of Cunninghame, 64 miles W. by s. from Edinburgh, 20
s.s.w. of Glasgow, the like distance n. of Ayr, and 3 w. from Beith ;
eligibly situated on the hanks of the Garnock, in the heart of a fine
country, and ^ithin a mile of the loch of Kilbirnie, which extends
two miles in length by half a mile in breadth. The importance of
this village has been greatly augmented by the flax spiuuing, lineu
thread, and fisbing-net works of Messrs. W. & J. Knox. A brauch of
the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, is established here. Gloogarnock
Iron Works is an extensive concern for the manufacture of pig iron
and basic steel, situated about a mile and a quarter to the south-
east of Kilbirnie. These works, which employ about 2,000
persons, inchi4ing those engaged in raising coal for the use of the
furnaces, are superintended by Mr. Robert Main, tho acting
manager. The workmen inhabit a newly erected village, and are
conveniently supplied with the necessaries required from a store,
at market prices. A large number of hands are also employed at
the factory of Messrs. Patou, Brown & Co., near to the Kilbirnie rail-
way statiou, manufacturers of winceys, flannel shirtings, skirtings,
&c. Kilbirnie is also noted for its manufacture of fishing nets, by
machinery, six firms being now engaged in this trade. There are
also two rope works, belonging respectively to Messrs. Robertson &
Baddot, and J. Watt & Co. The station is about a mile and a half
distant, at Glengaruock, but a new branch from the joint line at
Barmill, on tho Caledonian and South-Western joint line to
Kilmarnock, is now in course of construction, the terminus to
which will be in the village at Bridgend. It is expected to be open
for traffic about the end of this year (1888).
The old castle of Glengarnoclt is perhaps one of tho most ancient,
as well as the most stately, ruins in Ayrshire. It is supposed to
have been the residence of the once famed family of De Morville,
which flourished in great splendour during the reigns of Alexander!.,
David I., Malcolm IV., and William the Lion. They held the high
office of constable of Scotland, and were lords of Galloway and
Cunninghame. There likewise exist the extensive ruins of the old
house of Kilbirnie, long the residence of the ancient family of
Crawfuvd, of Kilbirnie. At tho present time, the estates of Kilbirnie
are principally possessed by the Knox family. The parish church is
a plain edifice, possessing no architectural features of importance.
The chief interest attaching to the building is found in the elaborate
carvings in wood with which portions of its interior are ornamented.
The gallery in the Crawfurd aisle, in particular, is a perfect mass of
beautiful carved work, reflecting great credit on the artist who
designed it. It is supposed to have been executed by the orders of
John, first Viscount Garnock, the escutcheon of whose arms, impaled
with those of his wife Margaret (only daughter of John, first Earl of
Bute), accompanied by sixteen other coats of arms, being those of his
ancestors in the fourth degree, appear along its front. The gallery
had been allowed to fall into a state of neglect and decay ; but
recently Mr. James Knox, the owner of Kilbirnie Castle, had it
thoroughly restored iu excellent taste, by Mr. John Pollock, Victoria
Cabinetworks, Beith, and it is now likely to remain an ornament
to the church for niauy years. The most interesting object iu the
church yard is the stately tomb which forms the last resting-place
of the gallant Captain Thomas Crawfurd, of Jordanhill, w,hose cap-
ture of Dumbarton Castle, in 1571, is ono of the most daring feats
recorded in history. Congregations of the Free Church, United
Presbyterians, and Roman Catholics have likewise their respective
temples for worship. A new cemetery, covering two acres, has been
added to the town, at a cost of £900. The parish of Kilbirnie com-
prises 10,335 acres, and had, in 1871, a population of 4,953 persons,,
and in 1881, 5,243; of this number the village contained 3,405.

HIGH AND LOW), CRAIGIE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
KILMARNOCK is a large and important manufacturing town in
the parish of that name and district of Cunuinghaiue, 65 ^ miles
s.w. of Edinburgh (through Glasgow), 21 s.w. from Glasgow, 12 n. by
e. from Ayr, and between six nnd seven E. by n. from Irvino ; situated
on level ground near the confluence of the Kilmarnock water with
the Irvine. Two centuries ago this now thriving and populous town
was a mere hamlet, dependent upon the baronial castle in its neigh-
bourhood. The chief advantages of the place as a site for manufac-
tures was the presence of coal, and for many years it seems to have
been distinguished only for the production of Scotch bonnets and
military caps. In 1731 the population had so increased that a new
parish, tbe High Church, was formed. Subsequently, and for a con-
siderable period, the staple manufacture was that of carpets, and in
this branch it yet stands pre-eminent. The leading kinds are two-
ply, three-ply and Brussels. A Kilmarnock mechanic had the
honour of being tbe discoverer of the three-ply carpets ; thoy excel
tbe two-ply in design, colour, and durability. Steam is now used by
moat firms for the weaving of two-ply and Brussels. An extensive
trade is carried on in tbe manufacture of shoes for exportation.
Formerly skin works and tanneries were common in Kilmarnock,
but at the present time there is only one of each. Of late years an
extensive trade in the manufacture of tweeds and winceys has been
developed, and woollen and worsted spinning is also carried on.
The iron trade may now be said to be the staple trade of tbe town,
and there are many large machine making and iron founding estab-
lishments. The most extensive of these are the Caledonian Works,
carried on by Messrs. Andrew Barclay, Sou & Co.; the Glenfleld; the
Vulcan, Messrs. M'Culloch ; the Townholm, Messrs. Graut, Ritchie
& Co.; and others. The Townholm Forge, carried on by Messrs. M.
Reid & Co. is famous for the size and excellence of its forgings.
The wages paid in this branch of manufacture alone amount to
several thousand pounds weekly. Shawl printing was formerly the
most important department of manufacture. It has almost dis-
appeared, and there are now only two small works engaged in it.
The manufacture of cotton and other goods by steam power has
been in operation for some years, aud gives employment to
several hundred females. There is also a largo establishment
for tbe manufacture of a patented water meter, invented by an
ingenious townsman, Mr. Thomas Kennedy. The importance of
Kilmarnock has been much increased by a large engineering estab-
lishments connection with the Glasgow and South- Western railway,
for the manufacture and repair of locomotive engiuos, carriages and
other apparatus. The banking establishments aro branches of
tbe Bank of Scotland, the Royal Bank Scotland, the Commercial
Dank of Scotland, Limited, tbe National Bauk of Scotland,
Limited, the Union Bauk of Scotland, Limited, the Clydesdale
Bank, Limited, and the British Linen Company, together with a
local bank for savings, apart from the one in connection with the
post office. Suirouuding the town are extensive coal fields, from
which fuel is obtained for the works of Kilmarnock, besides large
supplies being transmitted continually by railway to Ardrossau,
Ayr, Troon, and Irvine, where it is shipped to various places.
The civil government is vested in a provost, six bailies, and
eighteen councillors. The magistrates preside in the criminal
court by turns, and the justices sit monthly. This town joins with
Dumbarton, Port Glasgow, Renfrew, and Ruthergleu in returning
one member to Parliament, the present representative being
Stephen Williamson, Esq. Viscountess Ossinyton is the
principal owner of Kilmarnock and its neighbouring lands. Few
towns can boast of a largor and liner croBS, where no fewer than
seven streets converge. The are regularly laid out, and the greater
part of the houses are built of stone. The opening up of such new
streets as John Finnic street, in which is the new and commodious
P0Bt office, Duke street, and John Dickie street, have done much to
improve the general appearance of the town, as well to
promote sanitary purposes. The Liberals and Conservatives have
each a club house, the former being situated in John Finuie street,
whilst that of tbe latter, a new erection, is in Sturrock street. This
is a fine stone building in the Italian stjlo of architecture, and con-
sists of a spacious hall, to accommodato 400 people, and billiard,
reading and recreation rooms. Members aro admitted to full use of
the rooms for the small sum of one shilling per year. The building
was erected by public subscription at a cost of about ,£1,400 ; MrT.
R. S. Ingram being the architect, and Mr. James Wallace the
builder. The suburbs on the oast, south, and west sides
contain many handsomo villas, occupied by business men or retired
merchants. The Town House, built in 1805, contains a court room
for the magistracy, and public offices. The Court Houso in St.
Marnock street, erected in 1852, is an elegant structure, attached to
which are the sheriff's chambers and the offices of the procurator
fiscal. The Corn Exchango buildings comi>riso a large public hall,
erocted by an influential joint-stock company. At the junction of
John Finnie and John Dickie streets is a range of buildings,
belonging to and occupied by tho Kilmarnock Equitable Co-oper-
ative Society, and built at a cost of £0,000. Tho Kilmarnock
Academy is a handsome and commodious structure, worthy of the
town and highly creditable to the architect, Mr. William Railton.
It is built of red Bandstone, in the Gothic style of architecture of the
14— S-A-N
Elizabethan period, and is designed to accommodate 600 pupils,
boys and girls, where they are taught various branches of education
by able masters ; Mr, Hugh Dickie, b.a. is tbe rector. It was erected
by the burgh School Board, at a cost of £5,000, and was opened in
June, 1876- There are also two well-built and commodious elemen-
tary schools in High street and Low Glencairn street, also erected
by the School Board. What was formerly the Free school has been
converted by the Board into a Grammar school, and the Female
Industrial school is now an elementary school of the Board.
There are also several private schools, of a high character.
In addition to these aro Kay's Endowed schools, in Wellington
street aud Bentinck street, founded by Alexander Kay, a native of
Kilmarnuck, who left the sum of £6,000 for their building and
endowment. These schools have, by the Endowment Commissioners'
scheme, been sold to the School Board, aud the interest of the
proceeds applied to educational purposes. Two School BoardB have
been elected here — the Burgh School Board and the Landward
School Board, and all public schools withm tbe burgh are under the
supervision of the former, and those outside the boundaries of the
burgh under the latter. The institutions likewise comprise some
well conducted- societies. The most important is the Kilmarnock
Library, founded in 1797. At present, including the Shaw and
Philosophical libraries now amalgamated with it, thore are 7,328
separate works, with upwards of 20,000 volumes. By a bequest from
the late Mr. Crawford, bookseller, a free income of fully £100
annually has become available for the purchase of books. The
Philosophical Society was formed in 1828, for the promotion of
general and specially scientific knowledge. There is an excellent
reading room in the Ossington Coffeo House, built by Lady Ossington.
This room is liberally supplied with newspapers, magazines, and
other periodicals. Another institution worthy of notice is tho Kil-
marnock Philharmonic Society. Besides these, there are located
here four masonic lodges, a Bociety of the Independent
Order of Oddfellows, one of the Free Foresters, one of the Free
Gardeners, and others. An objoct of interest in this town is tho
Observatory, erected in 1818, by the late Mr. Thomas Morton, at an
expense of £1,000. The Observatory, which is 70 feet in height, and
furnished with valuable telescopes and other apparatus, stands on
a fine site, and commands a delightful view of the surrounding
country as far as the Firth of Clyde. Mr. Morton obtained con-
siderable celebrity for his mechanical genius, and in 1835 he was
elected a member of the Royal Society of Arts. In 1848 was
inaugurated in the market cross a beautiful monument to tho
memory of Sir James Shaw, Bart., late Lord Mayor of London, who
was a native of Mosshead, in this neighbourhood, where he was
born in 1764, and died on the 22nd October, 1843. The statue of the
deceased, by Fillans, is eight feet in height, mounted on a pedestal
of the same altitude. The former, which is cut out of a solid block
of marble, weighing ten tons, represents him in his civio decoration
as lord mayor, aud is altogether a very fine production of art.
The Kay Park owes its existence to tbe late Alexander Kay, in-
surance broker, Glasgow, a native of Kilmarnock, who died in
January, 1806. By his will, besides £6,000 for tho building and en-
dowment of two elementary schools for the children of industrious
poor, he left £10,000 to purchase grounds for a public park and to main-
tain the same. After several attempts to obtain suitable ground, tho
trustees gave up their endeavours, and tho money was allowed to
accumulate. In 1878 tho late Duke of Portland intimated his will-
ingness to deal with the trustees for the purchase of ground for a
public park, whoso capital was thcu about£13,000. After negotiations,
tho present site of the park was fixed, which consists of nearly forty
acres. Tho coSl of the ground alone was £9,000. It includes tho
Clerk's Holm, and stretches from Braehead House to tbe Townhcad
bridge, and from tho river on the west to GrassyardB road on tho
east. Nearly a fourth of it is reserved as fcuing ground. A large
portion of the money was spent in laying out tho park, and forming
drives and walks, bo that when the trustees handed it over to tho
councillittle more than £1,000 remained as a fund to maintain it.
In the centre of the Clerk's Holm is an ornamontal fountain, the
gift of the late Mrs. Crooks, which cost £800. In the same place a
band-stand has bcou erected, for music on Saturday afternoons. On
August 9th, 1879, the park was publicly banded over to the council,
in behoof of the town, by tho trustees, the council undertaking,
if necessary, to provide £100 yearly. In 1882 tho town council
nurchased Strawberry Bank, an adjoining property, consisting of
eight acres, for £1,800, which bus been incorporated with tho Kay
Park. A portion is reserved for feuing purposes, and a small orna-
mental lake is formed on the south-east of the ground. In connec-
tion with Kay Park may bo noticed tho Burns' Monument, said to bo
one of the finest to the memory of tho Bard in Scotland. Tho
monnment was originated at tho public anniversary of Barns, held
on January 26th, 1877, when a proposal to erect a statue in honour
of the poet was agreed to, and a committee appointed to carry out
the project. In a short time £1,001) was subscribed, and this before
long was doubled. Instead of a simple statue, the committee found
th.ey could erect a monument and statue therein. By tho kindness
of the Kay Trustees a site for the monument was granted in a most
eligible situation in tho park. The erection is in tho Scottish

into the Hastings, or Loudoun, family, whose residence is near
Galston. Among the residences of the gentry may be named The
Mount, the property of Lady Oranmore ; Caprington Castle, Annan-
hill HonBe, and others. The Fever Hospital and Dispensary, a
stone building, situated on an elevated site, was opened in 1868, the
cost of its erection being £4,146.
The markets, which are held on Tuesday and Friday, ace abund-
antly supplied with every necessary article of domestic consump-
tion. Fairs are held the second Tuesday in May, last Thursday in
July (commonly called the " gooseberry fair"), and the last Thurs-
day in October, for horses. The cheese show and fair, held at the
end of October, is affirmed to be tbe largest in the kingdom, and is
attended by dealers from all parts of the conntry. It was calculated
that at the show and fair held in 1884, fully 15,000 tons of cheese
wero represented at it. The October show is purely an agricultural
one. About the middle of April a large Bhow of cattle has been held
for years. Hwanks next to the great Ayr show. The acreage of the
parish of Kilmarnock is about 9,552. As showing the progress of
the town, it may be mentioned that in 1801 the population of the
parish was 8,079, and in 1884, 25,864. The burgh proper in that year
numbered 23,910, and the Parliamentary burgh, including Riccarton,
25,841.
The parish of Riccarton is iu the district of Kyle, lying on the
left or south bank of the Irvine river, which separates it from
Kilmarnock. 1 t contains about 7,600 acres. The village stands on
an eminence, a mile to the south of that town, but is almost con-
nected with Kilmarnock by a long street. The parish extends
about six miles in length by between two and three in breadth, and
includes the village of Hurlford, at which latter place is situated
the extensive works of the Eglinton Iron Co., also a large manufac-
tory for fire-clay articles, belonging to Messrs. J. & R. Howie, and
several extensive collieries. A very handsome Established church
and a Free church have also been erected in the immediate neigh-
bourhood, but in Kilmarnock parish ; and a large subscriptien school
was built for the education of the children of the working class, but is
now one of the public schools of the parish. There is a sub-post office
here. The village of Ricoarton is remarkable for having been the
residence of the venerable Sir Rowland Crawford, the maternal
uncle of Wallace, with whom tho hero sometimes sojourned ; and it
was to Riccarton that ho generally retired after performing any of
his very daring exploits, before he openly unfurled his country's
banner. The church of Riccarton iB a comparatively modern struc-
ture, having been erected in 1823 ; it has a fine lofty steeple, and, from
its elevated position, has an ornamental effect on the country round.
An excellent bridge across the Irvine materially improves tho
approach from Ayr to Kilmarnock. A considerable quantity of coal
is raised in this parish. The principal landed proprietors are W. C.
S. Cuninghame, Esq., j.p., of Caprington, the Duke of Portland, and
Captain Tufnoll, r.n. Acreage, 7,550. In 1881 the parish contained
7,112 persons.
Kilmaurs is a parish in the district of Cunninghame, with an
acreage of 5,900. The town, a small one and a burgh of barony, is
two miles from Kilmarnock, situated on the right bank of a rivulet
called Kilmaurs or Carmel water. It was erected into a burgh of
barony by .James V., at the instance of Cuthbort, Earl of Cleucairn,
aud his son, Lord Kilmaurs. The government of the town is vested
in two bailies (chosen annually by the portioners), before whom
debts may be recovered. Kilmaurs is composed principally of one
street, in the middle of which is a small town house, with a steeple
and clock. There is a sub-po5t and money order office here.
Formerly this place was somewhat noted for the manufacture of
clasp-knives or whittles, the sharpness of the edge of which instru-
ment gave rise in Ayrshire to a peculiar expression of comparison ;
a man of acute understanding and quickness of action is said to be
"as sharp as a Kilmaurs whittle." The most prominent trade now is
the manufacture of boots and shoe, and the factory of Messrs. Kellie
& M'Leish give employment to a number of hands. Coals are
raised in the parish, the surface of which consists of
large level fields, interspersed with gentle declivities and
elevations ; the summits of the latter are well
wooded, and the whole district has a pleasing appearance.
Communication with all parts of the country is afforded by the
Glasgow, Barrhead and Kilmarnock Joint Railway line, which has a
station here. There is an old pile of buildings near to the church,
seemingly of very ancient origin, but with |respect to its founder or
the date or object of its erection, even tradition itself is silent. In
the cemetery of the Glencairn family, adjacent to the church, is a
piece of beautiful sculptor, a specimen of the taste and execution of
former times, erected as a monument to the memory of the chan-
cellor William, tho ninth earl. The Established church has lately
undergone a thorough restoration, which includes new chancel and
tower and internal renovation, but in structure the old character of
the edifice has been maintained. The cost, amounting to about
£8,000, was defrayed jointly by the heritors and members of the
congregation. Mr. R. S. Ingram, of Kilmarnock, was tbe architect,
and the building contract was carried out by Messrs. W. Maclachlan
& Son, of Irvine. There aro also a Free church and a United Pres-
byterian church, and ample means of education are afforded the
children of the inhabitants by the burgh school and a parochial
Bchool, now under tho supervision of a School Board. The market,
which was for a long period held on Thursday, has fallen into disuse ;
but fairs are still maintained on the 11th of June, and on the third
Wednesday in that month, and the 11th of November. Population
of the parish in 1881, 3,704 ; of the village, 1,203.
Fen wick or Finnick, is a parish in the district of Cunninghame,
about nine miles in length by six in breadth, containing 18,104 acres;
The Kirktown is cheerfully situated about four miles n. by e. from
Kilmarnock, on the banks of the Merhenock stream, on the road to
Glasgow. There is another village, sometimes called Rose Fenwice,
on the same road, about a quarter of a mile s. from Kirktown. At a
former period the district was chiefly moorland ; bnt it has undergone
most material improvement, and the greater portion of the parish
is now under cultivation, and the village possesses the advantage of
a sub-post and money order office. Guthrie, a noted champion
of the Covenant before the Reformation, was the first minister of
this parish. He was a celebrated and very eccentric preacher,
distinguished by the title of the » fool of Finnick," m appellation
baronial style, from a design by Mr. Ingram, architect, Kilmar-
nock, and has a height of SO feet. It overlooks the whole town,
and commands one of tho finest possible views. Tho memorial
stone was laid with masonic honours on September 14th, 1878, and
on August 9tb, 1879, tho whole was completed. The statue, which is
of Sicilian marble, waB executed by Mr. W. G. Stevenson, Edinburgh,
and cost £800. It is reckoned an excellent likeness of the poet.
R. W. Cochran-Patrick, Esq., M.P. for North Ayrshire, laid the
memorial stone, and Major-General C. Alexander, M.P. for South
Ayrshire, unveiled the statue, which is placed in an alcove at the
top of the entrance stair. The entire cost of the building and statue
was about £2,700, the whole being raised by subscription, and both
were handed over to the council for the community free of debt.
Part of the building is used as a Burns' and Archaeological Museum.
The collection of Burns' holograph MSS. iu this monument is the
most complete in existence, and more may be seen by single visit to
it than in all other Burns' collections put together. It includes the
MSS. of » Tarn o* Shauter," "Cottar's Saturday Night," " Tho Twa
Dogs," "The Author's Earnest Cry and Praver," " Address to the
Dcil," " Winter: a dirge," *' Auld Farmer's "address to his Mare,"
" Hallow'een," "Holy Fair," ''John Barleycorn," " Man was made
to Mourn," " Address to James Smith," " Epistle to Davie, a brithor
poet," "Death of Pair Mailie," " Puir Mailie's Elegy," "Scotch
Drink," " Last Maya braw Wooer," " Holy Willie's Prayer," " Lassie
wi' the lint White Locks," Ac, aud many letters from Burns to his
correspondents in Kilmarnock and neighbourhood. There is also the
Mackie Library, which contains almost every published edition of
the poet (including tho first Kilmarnock edition, 17S6), comprising
upwards of 800 volumes.
The Buchanan Bequest is the most important charitable institu-
tion. In 1875 the last survivor of the Misses Buchanan, of Belllield,
died, and acoording to settlement made by tho three sisters the
estate of Belllield and mansion was gifted to the town of Kilmarnock
and the village of Riccarton, close to which the estate, which
consists of 240 acres, iB situated. The following digest of tho trust
deed fully explains its nature. The lauds and estate of Belllield
and the minerals wero to be held by trustees till Martinmas, 1885,
and the trust called the Buchanan Bequest. The annual proceeds
aretodofray cxpunses of the bequest, to pay yearly at Martinmas
£5 to the Certified Industrial School ; £3 to Kilmarnock Infirmary ;
£10 to tho parish minister of Riccarton, to be expended on flannel
for deserving poor; £180 yearly as salary to a missionary for
Riccarton parish, and the balance of the yearly rents from lands
and minerals to accumulate. As soon as convenient, part of the
mansion to be fitted up as a library, and open for consultation and
reference only to the public of Kilmarnock and Riccarton, and the
gardens and policies to be open for recreation. Out of the accumu-
lated funds, and before ten years, tho rest of the mansion to be
fitted up as an asylum for aged and infirm people, not on the poor
roll, who are to be sixty years old and upwards, or younger if
rendered unable by accidentto provide for themselves; and resident
for ten years in Kilmarnock or Riccarton parish. The inmates are
to be clothed and fed, and all charges paid out of the rents ; but a
sum must bo available yearly for equal division between Kilmarnock
and Riccarton for charitable purposes. The trustees have power to
abandon the asylum part of the bequest, should they think the
revenues not sufficient, and they have decided to do so. The
balance remaining for division between tbe parishes of Kilmarnock
and Riccarton for the year ending 10th November, 1887, was £374
12s. Cd. At the end of ten years all tho estate and funds are to be
transferred to the provost and magistrates of Kilmarnock, tho
Established Church clergymen of the town, the minister of Riccarton
and the trustees under the settlement, who shall thereafter
administer the trust, aud shall be the trustees. The mansion and
grounds have been open to the public since%hortly after the bequest,
every week day, and part of Sunday. The minerals have been let,
and are being worked, and the funds have been accumulating. It
is calculated that from ten to twenty aged persons will find refuge
in the house, should it be opened. The library contains 1,500
volumes. The place is much visited during the summer.
The civil parish of Kilmarnock' consists ecclesiastically of four
parishes— the Low, the High, St. Marnock's, and St. Andrew's, each
containing an Established church. Part of the original, or Low
church, is of grent antiquity. St. Marnock's church, erected at a cost
of £5,000, is a large handsome edifice, seated for 1,700 persons, and
ornamented with an admirable Gothic tower. Tbe Free Church
has six places of worship in tbo town, and a seventh in the village
of Crookedholm, in the parish. The United Presbyterians have
also four churches iu tho town. Their church in King street is very
neatly designed, and has a singularly elegant spire,. forming a con-
spicuous object in the scenery of the town. There are also chapels
for the Original Seceders, tho Evangelical Union, tho Scottish
Episcopalians, and tho Roman Catholics, besides places of worship
for other denominations. The old parish church yard and that of
St. Andrew's are now closed, but a public cemetery, covering seven
acres of ground, was opened in 1876.
The most remarkable object in this vicinity is the ruin of Dean
Castle, formerly the property of the Boyds, Earls of Kilmarnock.
It stands in a " dean," or hollow, less than a mile north from the
town. It was burnt down in 1735. When in a perfect state it was
considered capable of sustaining a long siege, as, according to
tradition, it had the means of drawing secret supplies through
subterranean ways that communicated with Crawfurdland Castle,
two miles distant. A portion of this castle dates from 1066. Kil-
marnock House, another edifice onco belonging to and the last
residence of that noble family, is situated in St. Marnock street.
From this house proceeded the last unfortunate earl, in 1745, to join
the standard of rebellion, which cost him his head. This building
is now occupied as an industrial school. About three miles from
the town, beautifully situated on the Carmel, is Rowallau Castle,
which in nf considerable antiquity, though the oldest portions aro
greatly decayed. It was the seat of the barons of Rowallan, and is
famous as being the birthplace of Elizaboth Moro, or Mure, the first
wife of Robert the Second of Scotland, who lived and died, tradition
says, at Dundonald Castha. It was also the residence of Sir William
Mure, author of a metrical translation of the Psalms of David, and
other poetical works. The Rowallan estate has passed by marriage

Guthrie is said to have held conventicles in the Castle of Rowallan,
the residence of Sir William Mure (who suffered severely by fines and
imprisonment for his attachment to the Presbyterian cause), after
he was ejected from the church in 1664. John Howie, who chronicled
the sufferings of the martyrs and confessors of the Covenant, was
tenant of the moorland farm of Lochgoiu, in this parish, and his
descendants still continue to occupy it. Many memorials of the
Covenanters are preserved in this sequestered farmhouse, including
the bible and sword of Captain Paton, the flag of the Phinick Cove-
nanters used at Drnmclog, &c. The old castle of Polkellie, at Pol-
kellie Hall, was the residence of Robert Mure, of Polkellie, &c, Lord
Provost of Edinburgh, whose wife was the first person in the district
who was prosecuted for heresy, in 1494. This parish was originally
a part of Kilmarnock, from which it was disjoined in 1641. The
church was built on the lands of Finnich (Gaelic) or Finniek which
became the name of the polish. The places of worship are a ehnrch.
of the Establishment, a Free church, and one for a United Presby-
terian congregation. Cattle fairs are held on the first Wednesday in
May and the first Tuesday in November. Populationof the parish in

Chaiqie, is a small postal village, about four miles s. from Kilmar-
nock, and possesses a church and a school. It is situated on an
elevation, aboat 400 feet above the sea, and commands a pleasant
view of the surrounding country and the sea. The old castlo of
Craigie,now in ruins, was long the residence of the Wallaces, of
Craigie and Riccarton. The immortal Scottish patriot Sir William
Wallace was descended from a younger branch of this family. The
parish, which is purely agricultural, and has an area of 6,57G
acres, is about eight miles in length by two in breadth. Population
in 1881,590.

AYRSHIRE
SLATER'S
KILWINNING
IS a parisb, post and market town, tbo former containing 10,989
acres, in the district of Cunniughamc. The town, a thriving one,
nud of considerable extent, is 21 miles s.s.w. from Glasgow, U n.w.
of Irvine, 4 n.e. of Saltcoats, the same distance p. of Dairy, 10 w n.w.
cf Kilmarnock, and 5 e. from Ardrossan, on the Glasgow and South-
western line of railway. A new branch of the Lanarkshire and
Ayrshire Railway, from Bannill to Ardrossan, was opened in llio
summer of 1S88, tbe station being close to tbat on the Glasgow
and South-Western line. Kilwinning is situated on riBiug
prouud, about two miles from the sea; stretcbiug westward
from tbe right bank of the Garnock, and approached by
excellent roads, passing through a highly cultivated agricultural
district. Tbe weaving and manufacture of gauzes, muslins,
shawls, Ac., was till lately carried on to an important extent
or the Glasgow and Paisley markets. There are large iron,
coal, and lire-clay works in the neighbourhood, and in the
town aro branches of the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, and
the Commercial Bank of Scotland, Limited. Several engineer-
ing works, an iron foundry, and a worsted spinning mill
are carried on in a spirited manner. The agricultural produce of
the parish is considerable, and coals, which are obtained in abund-
ance, are conveyed by a railway passing from east to west aeross
the parisb. A public park, for which £7,000 was bequeathed by tho
late John M'Gavin, Esq., formerly of this town, has been opened for
some years. Bo sides the Established and Free churches, there are
chapel3 belonging to tho -Evangelical Union, Origiual Sccedcrs,
United Presbyterians, and Roman Catholics. Tho only remarkable
objects arc the picturesque ruins of tho ancient abbey, founded by
Hugh dc Morville, in 1140, and the beautiful tower of the church, to
which its stylo of architecture boar.-; no rosoinblance. This tower
cost, exclusive of tho old materials, tho sum of £2,000, la'sed by
subscription, to which the Karl of Egliutou was a liberal con-
tributor. Tho present Kail has a fine mansion in tho ntighbour-
hood, called Egliutou Castle. In addition to tho numerous schools
in the locality there is a very handsome and commodious
school, built under the Scotch Education Act, at a cost of £8,700, to
accommodate about 803 children. Kilwinning was tho place in
Scotland where freemasonry was first established ; it was said to
have heen introduced by tbe foreign architect who was employed in
erecting the abbey. Besides the distinction acquired from its
ancient masonic lodge, it is also remarkable from being the seat of
a company of archers, ascertained to havo existed so early as the
year 1488: and a respectable society of that kind is still in existence.
Fairs are held on the first Monday in February and the first Monday
in November; and a cattle show in connection with the Farmers'
Society is held annually. In 1871 the parish contained a population
of 7,375, and the town 3,598; in 18S1 the numbers were; lor
tho parish, 7,037 ; for the town, 8,429.

KIRKMICHAEL AND DALRYMPLE,
WITH THE VILLAGE OF CROSS-HILL.
KIRKMICHAEL is a small vilUge and parish, containing 15,930
acres, in the district of Carrick. The village is 76 miles s.w,
from Edinburgh, 22 s. from Kilmarnock, 10 s. of Ayr, the same dis-
tance e. of Dalmellington, 8 n.e. of Dailly, 4^w. by n. from Straitou,
and 'd1^ e. from Maybole, pleasantly situated in a valley, on the road
from Newton Stewart to Glasgow, 36 miles from the former, and 44
from the latter. The general surface of this parish is hilly, towards
the south and east mountainous and rocky; but the whole is more
or less cultivated. The Girvan runs through the parish ; the Doou
is its boundary for several miles, and the Dyrock water flows
through the village, which latter derives its name from a church
that formerly stood here, dedicated to St. Michael ; the present
religious structure, which is neat and commodious, was built in
1787, on its site. In the churchyard is the tomb of Gilbert M'Adam,
who was shot in 1685 by the laird of Culzean and Ballocbmyle, for
his adherence to the covenanters. The annual fair is held on the
Friday before the last Wednesday in September. The Board school
was built in 1875, at a cost of .£1,100, and acenmruodatos 150 scholars,
Population of the parish in 1871, 2,254, and. in 1881, 1,989 ; of the
village, 313.
Cro6S-Hill is a village in the above parish, on the left hank of the
Girvan, about two miles south of Kirkmichael, and is a quoad sacra
parish in itself for church and school purposes. There aro Estab-
lished and Free Churches here, and also a Board school. Popula-
tion in 1871, 835, and in 1881, 740.
DALRYMrLEisa small village and parish in the district of Kyle,
pleasantly situated on the banks of the Doon, 4 miles n from Kirk-
michacl. The parisb, which is about eight miles at its extreme
length, and three in breadth, contains 7,833 acres, and comprises
some beautiful undulating and flat land, mostly arable. In the
eastern portion of tbe parish are several coal and ironstone pits,
which are wrought by the Dalmollingtou Irou Company, Limited.
The name Dalrymple is said to be derived from Dalrymole,
signifying " the dale in which the king was slaiu ;" and it is sup-
posed that Coilus, a king of the Britons, was killed in battlo in this
place; its Gaelic name, however, was Dail-a-CUmim-PuUi, or (l dale
of the crooked pool." Near tho Roman road, which iniersects the
parish, was found in amoss a vessel of Roman bronze, by anti-
quarians conjectured to be of that kind used by tho priests in their
sacrilicial oblations; and in 1834 was discovered, near the samo
spot, an ancient vase ; both these relics are in the possession of the
Rev. John Wallace, the minister of Dalrymple. In tlic pax-isb are
throe British fortlets, on commanding sites, and the ruins of three
castles ; those with tho beautiful loch of Mnrtmiham, tha waters of
which are covered annually with tho yellow and whito water lily,
are objects of considerable interest and curiosity to tho visitor to
this district. Tho Established and Free churches are tbe places of
worship, and there is a stone school and school house, built by the
School Board in 1875, at a cost of upwards of £1,500, to aocninmudata
150 scholars. In 1871 the population of the parish was 1,412, and
in 1831, 1,362 ; of which 316 belong to the village.

KIRKOSWALD
IS a parish containing 14,8G1 acres, in the district of Carriole. The
village, old and picturesque, is 13 miles s. from Ayr, and 4% S.E.
from May bole, situated on a lino of road. from Portpatrick to Glasgow,
90 miles from tbo former, and 48, by the new road, from the latter
town. The parish is highly interesting, as it contains within its
limits several objects of great attraction for the stranger and the
tourist. The sea coast presents a sandy beach, with a beautiful
rich sward to the very sea mark; and there are two lakes, from
whence flow many small streams that wander through the district
towards the sea. Of late years there have been raised various
delightful plantations, particularly near the shore around Culzean
Castle, the beautiful seat of the Marquis of Ailsa, who is lord of the
manor. The mansion, which is a fine specimen of ancient architec-
ture, is placed on a rock overhanging the sea ; and on the laud side
are delicious gardens, with a noble park of great extent. Not far
from the oastle is a fort, mounted with thirteen gnus, and a mortar
battory, both kept in efficient order. In a low valley, between Kirk-
oswald and Mavbole, are the remains of the abbey of Crossraguel,
founded in 1244, by Duncan, first Earl of Carrick, and dedicated to
the Virgin Mary ; at one period it was possessed by Cluuiac niouks
from Paisley. At the Reformation it became the property of the Earl
of CasBillia, but it bow pertains to the Right Hon. Sir James Fergus-
son, m.p., of Kilkerran, A lighthouse now stands upon the site of
Turnberry Oastle, once tho residence and property of Robert
Bruce. Within view of this memorial of former centuries, and not
more than a mile from it, lies the farm of Shauter, once the residence
nf Douglas Graham, the hero of Burns' poem "Tain o' Shauter."
Population ol the parish in 1871, 1,^46, and ia 1881, 1,781.

SLATER'S
LARGS AND. FAIRLIE.
IARGS, popularly called the Largs, is .1 neat town and seabathing
J place, in the parish of that name ; 70 miles w. by s. from Edin-
burgh, 00 s. w. from Glasgow, 14 s. from Greenock, and 2U n. from
Irvine, charmingly situated on the Frith of Clyde, in the northern
extremity of the county, in a remarkably healthy and well-
Bheltered district, particularly on tho north-east, in which direction
it is separated from the better cultivated districts by a range of
hills ; hence a proverbial expression still in use, " Out of the world
into the Largs." It is now one of the favourite retreats on the
western coast for rurnlising and bathing, the communications with
Glasgow aDd other large towns on this side of the country being
rendered convenient and expeditious by means of steamboats, which
ply daily on the Clyde ; or by rail from Fort Glasgow, or Greenock,
10 Wemyss Bay, thence by boat to Largs, a distance of about six
miles from the latter place. A new line of railway was opened in
June, 1885, connecting that of Fairlie, thus making a direct com-
munication, via Ardroism, to Glasgow. During tho summer
season it is enlivened by the presence of a great number of visitors,
for all of whom good accommodation is provided by the inns and
private lodging houses. There are some good shops, in which a fair
amount of business is transacted in all the various departments
of a retail trade, and the monetary transactions of tho town aro
facilitated by branches respectively of the lloynl Bank of Scotland,
the Union Bank of Scotland, Limited, and the British Linen Com-
pany Bank. Considerable business is carried on in the fishery.
The annual fair, commencing on the first Tuesday in June after
the 12th (St. Columbus' day), lasting for two days, has latterly
fallen away to a more semblenco of its former bustle aud activity.
At Mack erst on place there has been erected, at a cost of about £900,
by the inhabitants of the town, a beautiful granite fountain, as a
mark of respect to tho late Mr. John Campbell, surgeon, who for
CI years was a resident of the town. The parish church, a hand-
some structure of stone, with a spire and clock, is a great ornament.
There is also a Free church, one for United Presbyterians, an
Episcopal church, and one for Roman Catholics; while the Brisbane
Academy (an endowed establishment, recently amalgamated with
the Board school) affords the inhabitants ample means for educating
their families. Few districts possess more romantic scenery; the
old castles of Skelmorlie, Knock aud Fairlie, with Brisbane House,
ornament the parish. It was on the plains of Largs tint tin
celebrated battle was fouyht between the Scots under Alexander
III. and the Danes under Haco, King of Norway, in their last
invasion of this country, in 1263. In the glen near Kelhurn is u
cascade, which has a fall of fifty feet perpendicular ; and various
other natural beauties arrest the attention and excito admiration of
tho traveller. An aisle in tho church, built by Sir Robert Mont-
gomerie, of Skelmorlie, more tbau two centuries back, liafe under-
neath a vault, in which lies tho body ol Sir Robert, enclosed in a
leaden coilin bearing a Latin inscription, signifying " I was dead
beforo myself, I anticipated my proper burial alone of all mortal?,
following the example of Caesar ;'' alluding, it is said, to Charles V.,
who it may be remembered, had his funeral obsequies performed
previous to his death. The explanation usually given of this
strange affair is that Sir Robert was a very pious man, and was iu
the habit of making nocturnal descents into tho vaults to perform
his devotions, thus burying himself alive. Sir James Montgomerie,
Skelmorlie, a subsequent representative of tho family, was a dis-
tinguished leader among the Scotch Presbyterians at the time of
tho revolution, but is reported to have afterwards made himself
conspicuous by entering into a conspiracy with the ultra- Jacobites,
for the restoration of King James. Tho acro.igo of the parish is
21,850, and the population was iu 1871, 4,0S7, and in 18S1, 5,149-
Fairlie, or Fairley, is a small village in the parish of and about
two aud a half miles s. from Largs. Iu the vicinity is Kelbnrn
Castle, the picturesque seat and family mansion of the Earl of
Glasgow; likewise the ancient square tower of Fairlie Castle,
formerly a seat of a family of that name. Tl e extensive plantations
around Kelburn Castle are highly ornamental to the general land-
scape. There are, besides, some elegant villas, which harmonise
with aud adorn tho prevalent features of the parish ; and tho
marine scenery is truly beautiful and enlivening. There are two
places of worship in Fairlie, one an Established church, the other
a Free church; likewise a handsome Board school. Considerable
business is done lure iu yacht building, being notod for the beauty
of build and excellent sailing qualities of tho vessels launched from
tho various yards. Population in 1871, 201, aud in 1831, 072, which
is included iu the above.

AYRSHIRE
MAYBOLE,
AND THE VILLAGES OF CULROY OR MINISHANT, AND DUNURE OR EISHERTON,
MAYEOLE is a small neat market and post town, the capital o!
its parish, in t!te district of Carrick, W7 miles s.w. from Edin-
burgh, 52 n. by e. from Portpatrick, 44 s.B.w. from Glasgow, 25 n.
from Ballautrae, 22 s. by w. from Kilmarnock, 12 n. by B. from
Girvan, and 9 s. from Ayr. It lies in a charming part of the
country, on the face of u gentle eminence, with a southern exposure,
and surrounded by lovely scenery, formed of parks, highly culti-
vated. Maybole was created a free burgh of barony in Novem-
ber, 151C, on a grant to Gilbert, Earl of Cassillis, the- patron, and to
the provost and prebendaries of the collegiate church of Maybole,
to which belonged tbo lauds whereon the town stands. In October,
1639, an act ordaining the head court of Carrick to be held at May-
bole was passed by the Lords of tho Articles. Tha streets of the
town are narrow, and contain no eminently fine places or public
building*. Several of tbo dwellings bear a venerable aspect, and
doubtless were, at a distant period, tho domiciles of dignified
personages. The mansion house or castlo of tho Cassillis family,
is the finest surviviug specimen, of tho winter scats formerly existing
in fcTaybole. It i.s a stately, well-built structure, standing it*, tho
centre of the town, and is said to have been the residence of tho
repudiated Countess of Cassillis. It is now occupied by Thomas
Smith, Esq. factor to the Marquis of Ailsa, who is lord of the manor.
The building now used as the town hall belonged to tho Kennedys,
of Elairquhan. The principal business carried on here is the
manufacture of boots and shoes ; there are also two works for tho
manufacture of agricultural implements, and weaving is carried on
to some extent for Glasgow houses.
Tho collegiate church has been for some time in ruins, and the
ground appropriated as a private cemetery for tho Cassillis family
and a few others in tha neighbourhood. The parish church, a quoad
merit, a Free church, United Presbyterian church, an Episcopal
church, a Wesleyan Methodist chapel, and a Roman Catholic cbapel
are tho places of worship. All the old schools have been done away
with, and a fine stone building, two storeys in height, has been put
up in placo of them by the School Board, at a cost of upwards of
JE5,0ull,aud capable of accommodating 750 scholars. There are two
other Board schools in the parish— one at Miniahant, which is a
stone building, with a house for tbo master adjoining, was built in
1875, for one hundred scholars, at a cost of j6 1,200 ; and one at Fish-
irton, for one hundred scholars, at a cost o[ ,£650. The town is
gorerued by police commissioners. Yearly and quarterly meet-
ings of the Carrick Farmers' Society are held here ; the annual ono
is on the first Thursday in August, and the quarterly on the first
Thursday in the months of February, May and November; the
quarterly in August merges into the yearly assemblage. In the
vicinity are many interesting objects, among which are tbo
celebrated ruins, called Crossraguel (noticed in the sketch of Kirk-
oswald), and Kilkenzio castle, which was in a similar state of dilapi-
dation, but has of late years undergone repairs; it onco belonged to
a branch of the Cassillis family, who were for a longtime hereditary
bailies of Carrick. Ancient coins have been frequently found in
considerable numbers. Iu tho neighbourhood aro two remarkably
line springs of water, popularly called " St. Cuthbcrt's" and "Well
Trees " ; the latter is said to yield ten thousand imperial gallons per
hour. The market is held ou Thursday, and fairs on the third
Thursday in April and October. The acreage of the parish is
21,998. Tho population of the quoad sacra parish in 1871 was 2,701,
and iu 1881, 2,935 ; tho town having a population o! 4,474.
Culroy. or Minishant is a small village in the parish of Maybole,
threo miles and a half from that town, on the road to Ayr, from
which it is five miles and a half distant. A manufactory for woollen
goods is established iu this village. There are also a Board school,
and a church erected by Sir Peter Coats, in memory of his late
wife, who died 21st April, 1877.
Dunure or Fisherton is a small village in the parish of Msy •
bole, six and three quarter miles therefrom, and seven and a quarter
from Ayr, chiefly inhabited by fishermen. There is an Established
church and manse, a Board school and post office. Dunure Houie,
the p ropery of Francis T. R. Kennedy, Esq. is at present occupied
by George White, Esq. Near tho village are the ruins of Dunure
castlo, the ancient scat of the Kennedys, who hare now removed
their residence to Culzean,

MUIRKIRK,
WITH THE VILLAGE OF GLENBUCK AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
MUIRKIRK is a parish containing 80,229 acres in Kyle district.
The village, a thriving and considerable one, is 50 miles w.s.w.
from Edinburgh, SO s. from Glasgow, 20 E. by n. from Ayr, 24 s.E.
from Kilmarnock, and 16 n.w. from Sanquhar, situated near the
right bank of the water of Ayr, at the junction of the roads leading
from Glasgow to Dumfries, and from Edinburgh to Ayr. Although
in a district rude and bleak, the land is being fast reclaimed from its
original mossy and moorish character ; another considerable por-
tion is, however, profitably employed in grazing aud pasture, and in
1885, the black-faced sheep fed in this parish carried the Highland
Society's prize, ana also gained the first prize at tlie Paris Exhibi-
tion in 1862. Though nature has not hero been bountiful to the
farmer, or encouraged the labours of the agriculturist, she has been
very good to the miner, for coal, iron aud limestone are liberally
dispensed throughout the territory. At tbo Eglinton Iron Com-
pany's works are throe blast and several puddling furnaces and
rolling mills constantly in operation, for the manufacture of pig and
malleable iron. Extensive works havo latelv been added by the
Company for the manufacture of chemicals. Banking accommoda-
tion is afforded by a branch of the Clydesdale Ban'!, Limited, under
the management of Mr. James Gibson. The principal proprietors
of the land in the parish are Charles Howatson, Esq. j.p., tho Earl
of Homo (of Douglas), John G. A. liaird, Esq., M.r. of Camlmsdoon,
and the Hon. A. M. Cathcart, of Brocklock. The parish is also
celebrated for grouse and other sh< oting. Its length is nine miles
by an average breadth of about six ; bounded ou tho north-east by
Douglas, ou the south and south-west by Auchiuleck, and the west
and north-west by Sorn and Galston. Tho places of worship here
are an Established church, a Free church, one for tho United
Presbyterians, an Evangelical Union chapel, and a Roman Catholic
chapel. The Glasgow and South-Western line of railway runs close
to tho village, at which there is a station. In November, 1887, a
handsome building was opened, called the Baird's Institute, the
munificent gilt of J. G. A. Baird, Esq. m.p. Tho building is in tho
domestic Gothic style of architecture, and consists of reading room,
recreation room, and library, also caretaker's apartments,
offices, etc. The total cost was over £ 2,000. Mr. Bell, of Glasgow,
was the architect, and Messrs. D. & J. Milligan, of Ayr, the con-
tractors. Flirs are held for hiring on tho first Tuesday alter tho
18th February, aud the first Thursday after the. 18th December, and
for cattle, Ac. on the second Friday in Juuc. Population of tho
village in 1881. 3,470; of tho parish, 5,121!.
Glknbuck is a small mining village in tho parish of Muirkirk,
and situated about three miles N.E. from that town. The works of
tho Cairntable Gas Coal Co. Limited, give employment to a largo
number of tho inhabitants. There is a public school, also a railway
station on tho Caledouion Hue, about olio mile frou: tho village.
Population returned with the parish.

Directory
AYRSHIRE!
NEWMILNS AND DARVEL
NEWMILNS is a manufacturing town and burgh of barony in the
pariah of Loudoun, district of Ounninghamo, 24 miles s. of
Glasgow, 18 n.e. of Ayr, 7 e. by s. of Kilmarnock, and 16 n, of Cum-
nock, situated on the bank of the river Irvine, about two miles east
of Galston. It was made a burgh of barony by Kiug James IV. in
1490, and the charter was continued by Sir Matthew Campbell, of
Loudoun, in 156(5. The bailies are compotent to hold courts, from
■which there is no appeal, except the court of sessions, and in other
respects their jurisdiction is as ample as that of most royal burghs.
There is a police commission for the better regulation and improve-
ment of the town, consisting of seven members ; the chief magistrate
is the chief commissioner. The manufacture of muslins and lace is
carried on here extensively.a large numberof hands being employed
in this branch. The places of worship are an Established church,
a Free church and a United Presbyterian church. There is a Board
School, also one endowed by the late Lady Flora Hastings, and
built at a cost of over £6,000 ; and three Sabbath evening schools—
in the latter more than seven hundrod children of the working
classes receive instruction. The "Working Men's Institute was
erected by Miss Brown, of Lanfine,and is similar to those at Galston
and Darvel. In the centre of the town is seen the remains of an old
castle, said to have beeen erected as early as that of Edinburgh, but
record is silent or obscure concerning its ancient possessors. Within
the parish, and about a mile and a half from the town, is Loudoun
Castle, the elegant seat of Baron Donington. It is largo and magni-
ficent, in the castellated or baronial style, standing in the midst of
an extensive and well-wooded park. Near the mansion is the old
parish kirk of Loudoun, bearing the early date of 1015. The only
part now standing is that which formed the choir, and is now the
place of sepulchre of the noble families Loudoun and Hastings;
aud here rest tho remains of the lamented Lady Flora Hastings, to
whose memory, and that of her mother, a granite obelisk was
erected in 1888, by a near relative, Misa Henry, of Chelten-
ham. A branch line of tho Glasgow and South-Western Railway
is open for traffic as far as Newmilns, and a public
conveyance running between there and Darvel attends the arrival
and departure of all trains. The parish of Loudoun comprises
15,486 acres; population in 1881, 5,239. The population of Newmilna
in the same year was 2,860, part of which is in Galston parish. Since
the census of 1881, tho population of these places has, however,
largely increased.
Darvel is a considerable postal village in the same parish as;
Newmilns, and is comprised of one principal street, from which a
few small ones diverge. Tho manufacture of lace, lace and tapestry
curtains, and muslin is extensively carried on, and affords employ-
ment to a number of hands. The Marchioness of Hastings some
years ago formed a cemetery in this village. There is also a free
Bchool, endowed by the late* Alexander Mair, for the education of the
children of this village. The latter school has now been placed
under the direotion of the School Board. The places of worship Bi«
the Established church, an edifice in the Gothic style, erects/
at a cost of about £3,000, a Free church, and one each belonging \:
the Uoited Presbyterians, Original Seceders, and Evangelical Union,
some two or three being of a comparitively recent date. Tb *
Working Men's Institute was erected by Miss Brown, of Lanfine, in
July, 1870, at a cost of £2,200 ; it contains a library and reading
room, also a room for various kinds of amusements. Population ia
1881, 1,690, which has since that date much increased.

OCHILTREE
IS a Bmall but pleasant village, in tho parish of that name, district
of Kyle, C4 miles s.w. from Edinburgh, 49 n.w. from Dumfries,
87 s. from Glasgow, 28 n. by e. from Girvan, 22 n.w. from Sanquhar,
1G s. from Kilmarnock, tho like distance n.e. from Maybole, 11>£ E.
from Ayr, and 4 w. from Old Cumnock, situated on the south aide of
the Lugar water, and ou the high road from Ayr to Dumfries and
Edinburgh. The countrv around is delightfully picturesque, and
the face of tho parish, which is pretty level, with eorno agreeable
undulations, is well watered. The great Scottish reformer, John
Knox, married his second wife at this village ; she was the daughter

Ochiltree formerly gave a baron's title to a branch of the family ol
Stewart. There are an Established church, a Free church, and
public schools; also a subscription library well selected, and a
reading room. The acreaRO of tho parish is 18,328. Population in
1871, 1,656, and in 1881, 1,493 ; of which tho village possessed 523.

SLATER'S
SALTCOATS AND STEVENSTON.
SABTCOATS, a seaport town, is sitsated partly in the parish of
Ardrossan, and partly in the parish of Stevenston ; it lies
between these towns, and is less than a mile from each, 74 miles
s.B.w. from Edinburgh, 30 s.s.w. from Glasgow, 19 n. from Ayr, and
34 w. by n. from Kilmarnock. The town was made a burgh on 25th
May, 1885, by the adoption of the general Police Act for Scotland.
It is a place of treat re6ort for snmmer residents from all quarters,
the accommodation iu neat, comfortable cottages having been greatly
increased in recent years, and the communication by express and
ordinary trains offering special facilities for daily travellers in
summer. In the beginning of last century a harbour was constructed
for the shipment of coal, of which one of the most extensive fields in
Scotland lies in the immediate neighbourhood. The first canal made
in Scotland was formed here by Mr. Cuninghamo, for conveyance
of coal towards the harbour. The shipping and shipbuilding trade
was extensive and flourishing for many years, but on the erection of
the extensive iron works at Ardeer, Stevenston, by Messrs. Merry
and Cuninghame, iu 1852, the shipping was for the most part trans-
ferred to the commodious harbour and docks of ArdrosBan. Salt-
coats derived its name from the cots or cottages occupied by the
first inhabitants, who were employed in malting salt, in which
article there was at one time a very large trade ; ami it is one of the
few if not the only place now in Scotland where there is manufac-
tured that superior marine salt so greatly appreciated for dairy pur-
poses, and which has contributed in Borne degree to the superiority
of the far-famed Duulop cheeBe. Though deprived of its former ex-
tensive shipping trade, Saltcoats is now a much more flourishing
town than ever it was in former days. Its close proximity to
Ardrossan, on the one side, with its extensive harbours, docks and
public works, the two towns being nearly united, and with
Stevenston on the other, where are the Ardeer Foundry
Company's extensive works, and the Ardeer colliery, and
the opening of the Auchenharvie colliery at the east end of the
town, has not only improved the trade of the place, but has
also increased the population and stimulated building to a
very large extent. In the west end quite a new town of pri-
vate residences and summer quarters has been built of late.
Perhaps no town in the west of Scotland has made more progress
in the last thirty years in internal improvements ; the town has
been thoroughly drained by sewers through all the streets, and
brauch drains to every dwelling-house, accomplished by and at the
instance of the two Parochial Boards, who carry out a vigilant
sanitary control over the town. At a threatened approach of cholera
some years ago, Dr. Littlejohn was appointed by the Hoard of Super-
vision to survey the coast towns, and of Saltcoats he says : *' T found
tho town of Saltcoats iu an excellent sanitary state, No Scotch
town of equal population that I have visited shows so much
creditable sanitary improvement. The drainage is complete, the
paving is excellent. I cannot conclude without bringing the conduct
of the Local Authority of tho parish of Ardrossan (Saltcoats) undor
the favourable consideration of tho Board of Supervision." As a
result of these sanitary improvements, and indicative of the
healthfulness of the locality, tho death rate has for many years been
very low. A justice of peace court is regularly held in the Town
Hall on the first Friday of every month; Within the last thirty
years there have been erected in this place five new churches and
three new manses, beside the Free Church school and other public
schools ; and there has been constructed at the north end of the
town a handsome and commodious school, built under the Scotch
Education Act, to accommodate about GOO children. Tho gasworks
of the town combine three remarkable features, tho cheapest
gas, tho highest dividend, and the best quality maintained
in the shire. The town lamps are lighted by the company free. An
abundant supply of gravitation water of excellent quality
has recently been introduced. There are a few buildings
of note. The Town House was built in 1825, and consists!
of a spacious hall, with ante-rooms, and is surmounted by
a steeple ; it is a prominent object when approaching tho
town. The Royal Bank of Scotland and the Bank of Scot-
land have branches here, and each occupies a handsome building.
The Mission Coast Home has been a remarkable success here. This
institution, which was commenced in a room and kitchen by Mr.
Jas. Smith, a devoted missionary, and ably conducted by Mr.WilUam
Bryden, now consists of three long buildings, affording accommoda-
tion and treatment free to about sixty inmates, each remaining for
a short period ; and tho improvement in health, which is the general
result of a short stay in the homo, has become so remarkable that
there are sometimes hundreds of applicants waiting their turn
for admission. The cost is defrayed by voluntary subscription.
Saltcoats is much resorted to for sea bathing, the extensive sandy
beach on each side of the town being particularly suitable, the water
being considered strong and pure. Salt water baths were, a few
years ago, erected in connection with the principal hotel, the
Saracen's Head. The Lanarkshire and Ayrshire railway, which was
opened in the summer of 1888, has a station in the town, and the
Glasgow and South-Western Railway Co. has just erected a very
fine station and rooms. Population of the town in 1871j 4,624, and in
1881, 5,096.
Stevenston is a mining village, one mile from Saltcoats, and
three from Kilwinniug. It derives its name from Stephen or
Steven, the son of Richard, who obtained a giant of lands from
Richard Morville, a constable of Scotland; tho latter, a very cele-
brated man, died in 1189. Under this grant, Stephen settled hero,
and gave his patronymic designation to the place. The parish
abounds in valuable scams of coal. The extensive iron works of
Ardeer were erected here by Messrs. Merry & Cuninghame iu 1852.
There are very largo works for the manufacture of dynamite, in the
occupation of Nobel's Explosives Co. Limited. The extensive sands
stretching from Saltcoats to Irvine have been frequently suggested
as a suitable deposit ground for the sewage of Glasgow. The Es-
tablished church is a largo handsome building, of modern erection,
very prominently situated. Tho old church formerly belonged to
the monks of Kilwinniug. There is also a Free church. In the
centre of the town is erected a commodious school, built under the
Scotch Education Act, to accommodate about 650 children. The
parish contains 8,771 acres. Population of tho whole parish iu 1S71j
5,019, and in 1881, 5,694, and of the village, 3,556.

agricultural district, highly cultivated and improved, and adorned
by several tastefully laid out seats of tbo gentry. For centuries
Stewarton remained an inconsiderable and obscure village, and it is
only of a comparatively recent date that, owing to tho general
extension of trades and manufactures, it has considerably increased
in size. Several woollen mills are engaged in carding and spinning
for the carpet and bonnettrades. The staple articles of manufacture
are Scotch bonnets aud military forage caps, in which branches
there are about twenty employers. The manufacture of hosiery has
lately been introduced, and gives employment to a number of hands.
Ample banking accommodation is also afforded the town and neigh-
bourhood by the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, the Royal Bank of Scot-
land, and tho Union Bank of Scotland, Limited, each having a branch
here. The invention of " portable beo boxes " by a Mr.
Allan, of this town, has proved a great advantage in the manage-
ment of bees ; those boxes are so constructed as to prevent " swarm-
ing," and to produce a very superior honey and comb ; it obtains a
lnJuch higher price in the market than any other kind, and is known
by the name of " Stewarton honey." District courts are held on the
first Thursday of each month, for the recovery of small debts, and
Bach business as falls under! the jurisdiction of justices of the
peace for the parishes of Stewarton, Duulop, and Fenwick. The
public reading room, to which is attached a library and billiard
room, &c, is in the Institute Buildings, and there is also a
commodious ball admirably adapted for concerts, &0., with seating
lor about 600 persons. The places of worship are Established aud Free
churches, and for United Presbyterians and Independents. There
is a handsome Board school, erected under the Scotch Education
Act, which affords accommodation fur about 600 children.
Fairs are held on tho Thursday before the first Friday in January,
and on Monday next before the firBt Thursday in Hay, for horses,
cattle, and farm and dairy produce ; and on the Wednesday before
the last Thursday in October, for the like commodities, and for stock
and agricultural and dairy utensils, also for hiring servants. The
population of the parish of Stewarton in 1871 was 4,478, and in 1881,
4,309, that for tho town being 3,130.
DuNLor is a village 2^ miles n. from Stewarton, romantically
seated on the banks of the Glazart, on the main road leading
from Kilmarnock to Paisley ; and when seen from a little distance,
through the trees which embosom it, has an agreeable and retired
appearance. A handsome church, erected in 1835, is ornamental
to the neighbourhood; its predecessor having suffered from the com-
bined effects of age aud>eather. In tho churchyard is a small arched
chamber, forced under the direction of Lord Viscount Clauaboyes.' in
1641, over the grave of his father, the Rev. Hans Hamilton, who for
forty-one years was minister of the parish ; it contains a well-
executed monument in marble, justly deserving attention. A school-
house was also built by the same nobleman, in the wall of which
is a stone bearing the above date, aud an inscription stating
amongst other particulars that it was erected and endowed by him
" in love of his;parish,in King James the Sixt his Iiaigne;>} although
in excellent preservation, it has long ceased to bo occupied as an
educational establishment. The village likewise possesses a Board
school, which, in architecture, might contrast favourably with any
in the country. The parish to which the village gives name, lies
principally in the bailiery of Cuuuinghame,and county of Ayr, but on
the north it extends to Renfrewshire. It has long been noted for
the excellent quality of its cheese, which bears a high character
throughout Scotland. Several firms are also engaged in ham curing.
About the close of the seventeenth century, one Barbara Gilmour is
said to have commenced"the practice of making cheese from the
entire milk, nothing but skimmed milk having been used in tho
process in this district previous to that period; at present all the
cheese similarly made in the western counties receives the appella-
tion of '* Duulop," a largo quantity being made hero annually.
There is also a considerable trade in meal carried on by tho in-
habitants of tho villaga and surrounding territory. A branch of the
Clydesdale Bank, Limited, is established here. Duulop House, in
this parish, is one of the finest mansions in the county. On this
estate, resting on a small knoll, is a stone of large dimensions, called
the " O'Great Stone," supposed to have been employed in some
ancient rites of worship. Two fairs for tho sale of dairy stock are
held, one about the middle of May, the other on the 12th of Novem-
ber ; both are generally well attended. In 1871 the parish of Dnn-
lop, the acreage of which is 7,179, had a population of 1,160, aud in
1881, 1,363.

STRAITON,
WITH THE VILLAGE OF PATNA.
STRAITON is a large parish of 49,801 acres, in Carrick district,
The village, a neat one, is 80 miles s.w. from Edinburgh, 26 s.
from Kilmarnock, 11 s.e. from Ayr, the same distance n.e. from
Girvan, 7 e.s.e. from Maybole, the same distance n.e. from Dailly,
and 6 s.w. from Dalmellington ; finely situated on tho banks of the
Girvan, and on the road leading from Glasgow to Newton-Stewart
48 miles s. by w. from dho former, and SO n. from the latter town.
The parish, which extends about twenty miles iu length by eight in
breadth, consists for the most part of pasture land, the surface,
especially in the south-east, being wild and rocky, interspersed with
a number of small lakes ; there is, however, a considerable supply
of natural wood and several extensive plantations, and besides the
Girvan and lakes it is watered by tbe Doon. The inhabitants are
for the most part occupied in agricultural pursuits. About half a
mile south of tho village are the vestiges of an oblong entrenchment,
from which an extensive view is commanded ; about this spot, the
artificial work of which must be presumed to be of Roman origin,
various ancient relics have been found, particularly two carved
vases or urns, containing ashes. The Marquis of Ailsa, A. F.
M'Adam, Esq., the Right Hon. Sir James Fergusson, m.p., and Sir
Edward Hunter Blair are the proprietors of the land. Straiton has
a neat parish churchand a Board school. Blairquhan Castle, the
property of Sir Edward Hunter Blair, Bart., is at present occupied
by G. B. Worthington, Esq. It is built in the Tudor style, and is
situate about one mile from the village on the road to Girvan.
Geuoch Lodge, three miles and a half from tbe village, the property
of the Marquis of Ailsa, is at present tenanted by Major Sturrock
and James Dykes, Esq. as a shooting and fishing residence. The
population in 1871 of the quoad sacra parish was 758, and in 1881, 701.
Patna is a small village, in tbe parish of Straiton, situated on
the banks of the Doon, which abounds with trout. Coal and iron-
stone are obtained plentifully in this neighbourhood, and furnishes
employment to many of the villagers. The Duke of Portland is the
proprietor of the land about here. The places of worship are the
Established and United Presbyterian cburches. There is also a
Board sohool to accommodate two hundred scholars, erected in
1876, at a cost of £1,800. Population of the village in 1871, 766, and
in 1881, 603.

TROON, DUNDONALD AND SYMINGTON.
TROON, an excellent and improving seaport, in the parish of Dun-
doaald, is situated 75 miles s.w. from Edinburgh, 31 s.w. from
Glasgow, 7 s. from Irvine, 9 s.w. from Kilmarnock, and about 8 n.
from Ayr. Under the patronage of the Dnke of Portland, this place
has advanced steadily to a degree of eminence, and bids fair to
become one of the most important seaports on the west coast of
Scotland. Possessing nncommon natural advantages, in having an
extensive bay and a secure harbour, into which vessels of great
burthen can confidently enter with the wind from almost any point,
Troon is obviouBly destined to attain high rank in maritime estima-
tion. It has two superior dry docks for repairing vessels, large
storehouses, a lighthouse, a shipbuilding yard, and a rope and sail
manufactory. There are two banking establishments and a reading
room, all of which are Bitnated near the harbour. From the ex-
tremity of the harbour, directly to Kilmarnock, runs a railway (one
of the earliest in the country), on which immense quantities of
coal are conveyed from the neighbourhood of the latter town,
and thence shipped for Ireland, France, &c. The town is pro-
gressively enlarging, and in addition to the prosperity derived from
its commerce as a port, it enjoys the advantage of being visited in
the bathing season by numerous respectable families, for whose
accommodation many residences have been Duilt. Extensive golfing
links are connected with the town, where this national game is
much played. The places of worship are an Established church,
recently erected into a parish church ; a Free church, and one for
the United Presbyterians, for whose accommodation a handsome
new building was erected in 1888. The Roman Catholics
have also a chapel here, with a school in connection therewith.
There are two Board schools, under one head master. Population
in 1871, 2,790, and iu 1881, 2,631.
Dundonald is ft parish on the sea coast, in the district of Car-
rick, extending eight miles along the shore, from the water of
Irvine towards the sonth, and containing 12,365 acres. The village,
situated about four miles from Troon (which is also in the parish),
contains a church of the Establishmeut and a Free church, together
with a Board school. Dundonald Castle is a ruin of great celebrity
It was erected in the twelfth century, and long occupied by the Lord
High Stewards of Scotland ; and in it Robert the Second died. It
standB on an elevated and commanding situation, within two miles
of the sea. Population of the parish in 1871, 6,964, and in 1881,
8,089.
Symington, a parish of 3,736 acres, is in Kyle district, bounded by
Monkton on the south, and Dundonald on the north, the village
being about two miles from the latter. It contains a church of the
Establishment and a Free church, which has a school in connec-
tion ; there is also a Board school. The lands in this district were
held at a remote period, under Walter, the first Staart, by Symon
Lockhart, from whom the place originally obtained the name
which it bears at the present day. Population in 1871, 792, and in
1881, 697.
Barassie, a sea bathing village, and a station on the Glasgow and
South-Western line, is a mile and a half north of Troon.

WEST KILBRIDE AND NEIGHBOURHOOD.
WEST KILBRIDE, is a parish of 10,119 acres in the district of
Cunuiughame; the village is 78 miles W.s.W, from Edinburgh,
80 s.w. from Glasgow, 24 S.S.W. from Paisley, the like distance n.
troni Ayr, '22 s. from Greenock, 11) n.w. from Kilmarnock, 12 n. from
Irvino, 7V« S. from Largs, 7 s.w. from Dairy, 5 N. from Saltcoats, <i}..\
Ss from Fairlie, and -4 n.w. from Ardrossan ; surrounded on all sides
by rising grounds, which on the west protect it from tlm keen sea
breezes, and on the opposite aspect from easterly winds. The
scenery around is bold and romantic, interspersed with a few genteel
and handsome residences. The ruins of Law Castle and Porteu
Cross arc iti the immediate vicinity of the village, and ara both
objects of interest to the curious in architectural relics. The town,
or village, seems to bo making hut very slow progress in the march
of improvement. Brunches of the Comine'cial Bank of Scotland,
Limited, and the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, are established hero.
The principal employment of the inhabitants is weaving.
The places of worship are the parish church, and Episcopal Free
and United Presbyterian churches. There is a handsome Board
school, and the village supports a considerable library. The parish
extends six miles ftloi.g the shore of the Frith of Clyde, and inland
from two to three miles. The new line of tl.e Glasgow and South-West-
ern Railway being opened through to Largs, there is now a station
here. The district, independent of the ruins already mentioned,
possesses other attractive vestiges of autitjuity, and it is worthy of
remark that off the sea line of the parish, one of the largest vessels
coin (losing the Spanish Armada remains sunk in ten fathoms of
water. An attempt waa made about a century ago to examine the
internal condition of this ship and the operation succeeded so far
that a piece of ordnance was raised from her hulk. A number of
excellent residences have recently been built for the convenience of
summer visitor*. In 1671 the entire parish of West Kilbride had a
population of 1.091 persons, and in 1881, 2,081, the village possessing
^ about half of that number.

BANFFSHIEE.
fpHIS connty, which is of no great extent, is bounded on the north by the Frith of Moray, on the sonth and on the east by Aberdeen,
shire, and on the west by the shires of Moray and Inverness. Its form is elongated— irregularly concave towards its south-eastern
border, and convex on its north-eastern, with a Blip or apex inserted between the counties of Moray and Aberdeen. Its extent is fifty
miles from north to sonth, and thirty-two miles from eaBt to west, with an average breadth of twelve, containing 686 square miles, or
89,219 acres; it diminishes to an apex at the extreme weBtern end, but the base on the coast extends twenty-five miles. The course of
the Doveron for a considerable distance forms the eastern boundary between this county and that of Aberdeen ; and the Spey, with little
impropriety, may be accounted its western limit with Morayshire. This district was at one time a component part of the province of
Moray, which altogether forms one of the finest tracts of ground in the northern part of Scotland. On the eastern side of the Doveron, in
the distriot of Enchan, the parish of Gamrie, and some other Bpots of land, belong to Banffshire, which both in point of Bize and in popnla.
tion ranks as the fifteenth county in Scotland.
Soil, Surface and Climate, Phoddce and Manufactures.— The soil, with few exceptions, is deep loam or tenacious clay. The face)
of the country is agreeably diversified by an intermixture of valleys and flat ground among the ranges of hills, with many beautiful fertile
braes, productive of the finest crops, or serviceable for the excellence of their green pasture. The Strath of Glen-Avon proceeds from the
ferest of Glen-Avon, in a north-easterly direction, or on tha left, and Strath Devon the right. Betwixt theBe is Glen-Livet, from whence,
in a north-easterly direction, diverges Glen-Piddich. The priocipal eminences in the county are:— Noatb, 1,880 ; Buck, or Cabra ch, 2,377
Knockhill, 2,500 ; Corryhabbie, 2,558 ; Ben Einnes, 2,747 ; and Cairngorn, 4,244 feet above the level of the sea. The principal crops raised
are barley, oats, potatoes, and sometimes wheat ; but great attention is paid to the cultivation of turnips for feeding purposes, the rearing
of cattle forming for the most part the chief object of the farmer. The Aberdeenshire polled cattle and the pure short-horned are the
breeds most esteemed. In many parts of the county fine flocks of sheep are to be met with, both of the Cheviot and the black-facei
varieties. The fisheries are also of importance, more than a dozen towns and villages being connected, to a greater or less extent, with this
industry. Cod, ling, haddock, whiting, halibut, skate and flounder frequent the Firth, and turbot and mackerel are occasionally caught,
whilst in the season the herring yields a rich harvest to the fishermen. The curing of fish is of consequence, many persons being engaged
in this branch of trade in several of the towns, in which are also extensive distilleries, Gleulivet whisky having become a famous brand.
Under the auspices of parliamentary commissioners, the county has experienced considerable improvement, in being opened out by new
roads. Limestone may be quarried beneath the Burface of nearly the whole county, and at Portsoy is a fine vein of 6erpentine stone, called
" Portsoy marble,'' as well as a species of granite which, when polished, exhibits the resemblance of Hebrew characters. Freestone,
ironstone, marl and slate are also found in various parts. The chief articles of export are grain, fish and whisky ; the salmon of the Spey
and Deveron put together is also an article of great consideration. The principal imports are coal, iron, timber and manures. The climata
of Banffshire is precarious. In the hilly districts, all the evils of cold and rain are often felt ; and as frost and snow frequently set in
without any interval of good weather, the harvests are not only endangered, but at times are not finished until the end of October.
The lower part of the shire, from Duff-house to Forglen and Iiinnairdy (a tract of about twelve miles along the river side), and from
Banff to Gordon Castle, including the districts of Boyne and Enzie, must be excepted, being nearly equal to the climate of Moray,
and greatly surpassing most parts of the country in the fertility of the soil, the improvement of its agriculture, and the richness ol
its productions.
Rivers, Railways, &c— The waters of this county are the Spey, the Livet, the Avon, the Fiddich, the Deveron, the Isla, the Conglas,
and several more niinulc streams. The Deveron is not navigable ; but this, as well as the Spey, yields excellent salmon fishing, and aa
such is the source of much comfort and wealth to the inhabitants. Along the coast there are a number of rivulets, which fall with a
quick descent, and are nseful in propelling machinery, in different little towns and villages where manufactures are established, or have
begun to make their appearance. The Great North of Scotland line gives great facility for railway communication, most of the towns
being connected therewith, either on the main line or one of its numerous branches.
Divisions, Representation, &c— Banffshire comprehends twenty-six civil and quoad sacra parishes, and is partly in the synod of
Aberdeen and partly in that of Moray in Eoss; it contains two royal burghs— Banff and Cullen ; these are also contributory burghs,
or those which, in conjunction with others, are represented in the Senate. One member represents the shire at large, the present
representative being Robert ,W. Duff, Esq. The lord lieutenant of the county is the Duke of Eichmond and Gordon, e.g. According to
the census returns for 1871, the county contained a population of 62,023 persons, and by those for 1881, 62,736. The number of
inhabited houses at the last-named period was 12,568 ; uninhabited, 509 ; in course of erection, 74. The parliamentary constit-
uency in 1887-88 numbered 7,164. The valuation of the county for 1887-88 was (exclusive of railways), £227,834, and the valuation
Of railways, £21,827.

T) ANFFis a royal burgh, the capital of the county and of the parish
Jj of its name, 155 miles n. by B. of Edinburgh, 80 E.of Inverness,
46 n. by w. of Aberdeen, 85 e. of Elgin, 25 e. by n. of Fochabers, 18
E. of Cullen, and 8 e. by s. of Portsoy, pleasantly situated on the side
of a hill overlooking the west bank of the Deveron and its conflu-
ence with the sea. This town was part of the ancient thanedom of
Boin, whence the name seems to be derived, for in some old charters
it is written Bovtrffe and Baineffe. Tradition says it was founded by
Malcolm Canmore, in 1168; and it was erected into a royal burgh in
1372, by Robert II. who endowed it with the same privileges and
placed it on the same footiug as Aberdeen. It is governed by a
provost, three bailies, and rive councillors. Banff and Macduff, in
conjunction with Cullen, Elgin, Iuverune, Kintore, and Peterhead,
return one member to Parliament. The gentleman at present sitting
is Alexander Asher, Esq.
The town comprises several well-built streets, with handsome
shops, find is remarkably clean and neat. From the sea it presents
a very interesting appearance, and from any point of view may be
regarded as lively and particularly cheerful. The xnincipal street
is ornamented with suitable county buildings and a modern town
house, the latter surmounted by an elegant spire. An ornamental
drinking fountain, presented by the town of Banff in memory of
Walter Biggar, Esq., and Mrs. Ann Duff, his wife, was n few years
a*o erected, and adds to the picturesqueness of this part of the
burgh; There are also public baths, a museum, and libraries. A
social club and newsroom was opened in September, 1881, and
receives a fair share of patronage. A newspaper, the Banffshire
Journal, with a large circulation, is published in the town. Two
railways have their terminus in Banff, one from the south by way of
Turriff, the other from the west by Straihisla. The burgh boasts of
one of the finest hotels in the north.
The river Deveron, which abounds with salmon, is here crossed
by a substantially-constructed bridge of seven arches, which gives
access to the seaport of Macduff. From the bridge a tine view is
obtained of Duff House, the seat of the Earl of Fife. The elegant
mansion is partly in the Corinthian and partly in the composite
style of architecture, and the front is elaborately decorated with
sculpture. A wing has been added at an expense of about £4,000.
The interior is replete with curiosities, and embellished with an
extensive collection of paintings by the most celebrated foreigu and
British artists.
The inner harbour of Banff is secure, but has not a great depth of
water. The outer basin, which is defended by n pier and break-
water, haB a groater depth, and affords very good shelter. A
Morton's patent slip apparatus is hero fitted up, and is frequently
in uso. The port of Banff stands sixth in the list of Scotch ports as
regards tonnage of sailing ships. The number of vessels on the
register is 96, the aggregate burden of which is 15,994 tons ; but a
number of other vessels trade to the port. The chief trade is of an
export nature, and comprises salmon, herring and other fish.
There are six branch banks and a custom house, and the merchants
have the privilege of a bonded warehouse. There is a large dis-
tillery, besides a brewery, and au extensive saw mill. An iron
foundry has long been iu operation, and does au extensivebusiness.
Sniip huilding, rope and bail making, and tanning are also carried on.

modern erection, with handsome spire ; a Free church, aud chapels
b -longing to Episcopalians, United Presbyterians, Roman Catholics,
Wesleyan Methodists and Baptists. Chalmers' Hospital was founded
in 1861, iu terms of u bequest by the late Alexander Chalmers, of
Climie, long a merchant in the town of Banff, and is for the support,
maintenance, cure, and relief of destitute sick paupers, lunatics,
and other diseased and poor infirm persons, of both sexes, born,
domiciliated, and resident in any town or parish in the county of
Banff; the inhabitants whereof shall make collections at their res-
pective parish churches in aid of tbe funds of the hospital. It is
adapted to accommodate fifty patients, with the requisite buildings
for officials and attendants. A permanent, revenue for the support
of the hospital is derived from the rental of the laud of Cluuie and
Kuockorth. The building is situated in the seatown, and is an
iinposingerection. Banff academy once stood high as an educational
institution, but siuce the Education Act, it has passed into the hands
of the School Board; and, independent of other superior scholastic
establishments, there are charity schools for the children of tho
humbler classes. There are also two boarding establishments for
youug ladies, so that few burghs offer greater educational facilities.
A castle of considerable strength and magnitude formerly raised
its feudal battlements in the burgh; but of all that might convey a
conception of v s grandeur or importance, no vestige remains but
part of the ancient wall, the moat, and traces of tho entrenchments ;
a modern mansion now occupies part of the site. Edward I. visited
Banff Castle on Sunday, the 22nd July, 1296, after Baliol, King of
Scotland, had surrendered to Edward at Montrose, on tbe 7th July.
After he had defeated Wallace at the battle of Falkirit, Edward
again marched north and visited Banff Castle a second time, on the
4th September, 1298, and tho public records show that it was the
last stronghold possessed by the English, north of tho Grampians.
The Castle thereafter became a constabulary, the residence of tho
king's representative or constable, who exercised judicial authority
in the count)'. Dr. James Sharp, the celebrated Archbishop of St.
Andrews, was born in Banff Castle, in May, 1613. The society of
• the place is polished «iud agreeable, while the size and position of
tbe town place within reach of the inhabitants alt the comforts of a
city, with most of the privileges of rural life. The weekly corn and
provision markets are held on Friday, Brandon fair on the Friday
before the 26th of May, or the 26th if a Friday, and on the Friday
before the 22nd of November, or tho 22nd if a Friday, the harvest
feeing market on the first Friday of August, old style. In 1881,
Banff had a population of 4,203, and the parliamentary burgu 7,844
persons.
Alvah is a parish 3J£ miles s.s.w. of Banff. The river Deveron is
here crossed by a bridge, erected by tho Earl of Fife. The parish is
six miles long and three wide, ami is for the most part fertile.
There is a church of tho Establishment. The hill of Alvah is
a conspicuous landmark for this coast. Population of the quoad
sacra parish in 1881, 1.356.
Whitkhills is a village in tho parish of Royndio, 2 miles w.n.w. of
Banff, chiefly inhabited by fishermen. The parish, which is five

BUCKIE,
RATHVEN, PORT GORDON, PORTESSIE, ENZIE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
T)UCKIE, which was established as a fishing village a little more.
> than a century pgo, lias now grown to be among the largest and
most important towns in the county of Banff. Its name, unlike most
of the other places in the district, wbich are of Gaelic derivation, is
obviously of German origin, being derived from Bucht—n. bay.
Situated as it is ou the shore of Moray Frith, its name is accurately
descriptive. It is in the pariah of Rat liven j 20 miles w. from Banff,
the county town ; 6 w. from Cullen, and 7 e. from Fochabers. Its
population has been increasing steadily every decide; the last
census (1881) having registered a total of 4,500. In the beginning of
1888 the General Police Act was adopted, and Easter Bucltio or
Buckie proper, and Nether BucUie are both included in the Police
Burgh of BucUie. The town is divided by the burn, Bucltio proper,
of wbicb the trustees of the bite John Gordon, Esq. of C'luiry, are the
superiors, lying on the east, and Nether Buckie, of which Sir Robert
G. Gordon, Bart., of Letterfonrie, is superior, ou the west of the said
burn. The tenure under wbich property is held is mainly feu right.
As might bo expected from theoriyin of the town, ami also iis natural
capabilities, fishing is the principal trade. The Buckie fishing dis-
trict, comprising the neighbouring stations on the coast, ranks the
foremost in the kingdom in respect of the number of boats owned
and employed, and also in value. It is possessed of two harbours,
the one in Nether Buckie, constructed about :i8 yeiirs ago, at a cost
of £ 18,000. Two- thirds of this amount was contributed by the Board
of Ft-beries, and the other third by Sir Robert G. Gordon. The
other harbour, which was commenced in 1874, was built at the sole
exnenso of the lato John Gordon, Esq. of Cluny, at a cost of about
,-£70,000. For depth of water and other capabilities this harbour is
allowed to be the finest in all the Moray Frith, It is made of concrete,
i« nil i« in all respects admirably and strongly constructed. D.
Cunningham, Esq. c.e. Dundee, was the engineer. A number of
curing stations and other stores have been erected by the
Cluny Trustees, and are all occupied. There is now a
splendid steamer service from Leitb and Aberdeen to Buckie
and other Moray Frith ports, which has already developed
n good trade. The Great North of Scotland and Highland Railway
Companies have each stations here. Approached either by sea or
land this town presents an imposing appearance, possessed as it is
of such line ecclesiastical buildings. First and foremost is the
Roman Catholic chapel with its two spires, tho new Established
church with its crowned tower, the Free and Episcopal chapels,
both with elegant spires, besides the U. P. church, which is a sub-
stantial building. There are two good hotels in the t*>wn, the
Cluny, in High street, and the St. Andrew's, in Buckpool. The
houses generally are of a good and substantial character, and besides
a number of handsome private buildings, the North of Scotland
Bank, Limited, the Town and Comity Bank, Limited, and the Union
Bank, Limited, occupy respectively first-class and modern buildings.
Besides tho fisii curing crude, there are other industries springing
up. There are net and ropo manufactories, a foundry and steam
saw mills, and at Inehgower is a large distillery, of which Messrs.
Alexander Wilson & Co. are the proprietors. With railway commu-
nication and suitable steamer service from the north side of the
port, Buckio is destined to become the loading commercial town in
the county.
Port Gordon is a village on the coast, about a mile w. from
Buckie. Its inhabitants are exclusively occupied in fishing and the
ship coasting trade ; they employ stake and bag nets for the capture
of salmon, which are here abundant, being in the immediate vicinage
of Speyniouth. A large quantity of com was formerly shipped
annually from this port. The harbour is commodious, and the
greater part is built of Portland cement concrete, at tho sole expense
nf tho Duke of Richmond and Gordon. A narrow rivulet separates
this village from that of Port Tannachy. Population in 1881, 1,1-1-.
Portessig is a small coast village, about a mile e. from Buckie ;
it is of some consequence as a beat building and fishing station.
Population in 1881, 1,061.
Tho parish of li&THVEN extends about 10 miles along tho coast
of the Moray Frith, by from three to five in bread! h. The greater
portion of the laud is billy, but the more level parts near the sea are
arable and fertile, being greatly enriched by sen. manure; and in
some parts the eye is relieved by the appearance of thriving plan-
tations. Throughout, the district the supply of limestone, sand-
stone and slate is abundant, and the memorials of antiquity are
numerous, the Danish " cairu " being tho most general. Acreage,
23,165. Tho population of the entire parish of Rathveu in 1881 was
11,140.
Enzie is a quoad sacra parish, 22 miles w. of Banff. The parish is

ment, a Free church, and two Roman Catholic chapels are the places
of worship. Population of the parish in 1881, 2,108.

parish of its name, 191 miles n.n.k. nf Edinburgh, 22 e. of Elgin,
18 n.e. of Fochabers, 14 w. of Banff, anil G w. of Portsoy ; situated on
a commanding eminence overlooking the Moray Frith. Formerly it
consisted of two distinct towns — the New Town and thn Old Town,
but between 1820-30 the latter was wholly removed from its site
ndjacent to Cullen House to its present position, thfl churoh alone
remaining. Tbo town, which presents an aspect of neatness and
respectability, is indebted to the Seafield faoiily for many of its
improvements. The Great North of Scotland (Bnckie Exteusion)
Railway passes through tlie burgh. To tbe west of the station the
railway is carried over the town by a series of arches which termi-
nate in a viaduct of ei^ht arches between seventy and eighty feet
high. The viaduct spins tho mouth of Cullen burn, separating the
parishes of Cullen and Rathveu.
Tbe Established church is a pre-Rerormatiou building of much
interest, with a history dating back upwards of six centuries. It
contains numerous, ancient monuments and inscriptions in an
excellent state of preservation. There are also Free and United
Presbyterian churches, the former built iu 1814, and tho latter in
1882. la 1876 a Board school was erected at a cost of £2,500.
The curing of fish and its exportation is carried on by several of
the inhabitants. There are also branches of tho Union Rank of
Scotland, Limited, and tbe North of Scotland Bank, Limited, a
brewery, aud two good hotels. The acting magistrates are tbe pro-
vost and two bailies, with a treasurer, dean of guild, and nine coun-
cillors. A justice of peaco small debt court is held on the first
Tuesday in every month. The burgh joins witli Banff, Elgin, Inver-
urie, Kintore, aud Peterhead in returning a member to Parliament.
The gentleman at present sitting is Alexander Asher, Esq. Cullen
House ia an ancient and irregular edifice; the interior is, however,
furnished with modern taste, and adorned with paintings by the
most eminent masters. Cullen stream passes under tho south walls ;
aud on the opposite side are the park and pleasure grouuds,which are
connected with tbo house by an elegant arch of eighty-four fe^t span.
Not far distant are the ruins of a dwelling iu which Elizabeth, queeu
of llob^rt ISruce, is said to have died. An eminence, called Cattle
Hill, at the western extremity of the town, is the site of an ancient
fortification, which must formerly have beeu a placo of great
strength. An almost perpendicular rock renders it inaccessible
from the north, aud it is surrounded in every other direction by a
deep ditch. It is supposed te have been destroyed by lire, as vitri-
fied stones luive been frequently extracted from beneath tbe surface.
Tho ruins of Findlater Castle, a building of great antiquity, are
situated about two miles u. of Cullen. Fairs are held on tbe third
Friday in May, aud tho second Friday in November (new style.) In
1831 the ontire parish of Cullen, tho area of which is 8dl acres, laid
a population of '2.236, aud tbo town 2,03:3.
Deskford is a parish lying between Cullen and Grange, five miles
in length by three in breadth. Tho ruins of Deskford Tower, tho
Castle of Inaltrio, and a pro-Reformation church are in this parish,
i Tlie places of worship are ;i new parish church and a Free church,
| aud iu tho villago are good public schools. Acreage, 8,155. Popula-
I tion in 1881, 849.
PoitTKNocicro is a fishing vilbigo within the royalty of Cullen, in
the parish of Rathveu, 2 miles w.n.w. from Cullen, and 4 miles k;
| from Portcssie. It is situated on Moray Frith, and contains an
Established church, elected in 1833, a Free church, and a public
school. The district was erected into a quoad sacra parish, with tho
designation of Seafield Parish, in 18S5. A deep water harbour
was constructed in 1838. Population in 1881, 1,118.
Findochty is also a small fishing villago in tho sumo parish as
Portknockie, 8 miles w. from Cullen. A harbour was a few years ago
constructed here at a cost of £10,0d0. The places of worship are a
United Prcshytoriau church and a Wesleyan chapel. There is also

KEITH,
BOTRIPHNIE, NEWMILL, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
KEITH is a market and post town, and parish— tho latter chiefly
iu the county of Banff, but extending into that of Moray.
Tho town is 170 miles n. of Edinburgh, 20 s.w. of Banff, 17 e.s.e. of
Elgin, 50 n.b. of Aberdeen, 50 e. of Inverness, 8 s.e. of Focnabers,
17 a.S.w. of Portsoy, and 12 s. of Cullen ; situate on the banks of the
Isla, in the centre of an amphitheatre of hills. It is divided into
three distinct towns, namely— Old Keith, New Keith, and Fife
Keith— the latter, erected by the Earl of Fife, is separated from Old
and New Keith by the Isla. The old town has declined considerably
since the establishment of the new. New Keith was begun about the
year 1750, by the Earl of Fiudlater, upon a barren tract of land,feued
off in tenements of fifteen yards by sixty. It is formed on a regular
plan of three parallel streets aud a square ; in the principal street
18— S-A-N
there are many good shops and hotels. There are no authentio
documents to record tho origin of Old Keith, but it has certainly
existed upwards of six centuries, aud was at one time the county
town. The Court of Registry possessed an extensive jurisdiction,
including the four pleas of the Crown. Tho last criminal hanged
was Gilbert Dallachy. condomned for theft, about 16"90. On the-
banks of the Isla, a little below the town, are tho ruins of a castle,
which belonged to the Oliphaut family. Tradition says that part
of the castle was built overhanging a deep pool in the river at the
foot of a small waterfall, into which this part fell. Further up the
river is an old bridge, well worth a visit. Keith was noted for the
great animal fair which lasted a week, about the middle of
September, Traders from Glasgow and Dundee, and the south

generally, were met there by all their customers from the northerly
parts of the kingdom, including the Orkney Islands, to settle past
and arrange future transactions. The number of horses and cattle
was very great, and even yettbe horse market in September is one
of the largest in the north. The Suit-Roll-Croft on the banks of
the Isla, near Keith, was the gathering place of the Clan Gordon;
Suttrall House, Fife Keith, now marks the gathering place. Keith
was the birthplace of Ferguson, the astronomer. On the Caird's
Hill, denoting the "hill of friends," are remains of a Druidieal
temple, near which several tumuli have been opened, and found to
contain vArious sepulchral remains. Tradition relates that an
encounter took place in Old Keith, upwards of one bundled and
fifty years ago, between Mr. Gordon, of Glongaiick, and Peter Roy
M'Gregor, the leader of a hand of freebooters, who, after a desperate
resistance, was defeated, himself taken prisoner, and his gang
destroyed. The extensive manufactory belonging to Messrs. G. & G.
Kynoch, for the manufacture of Scotch tweeds, gives employ-
ment to a considerable number of hands. In addition there
are large flour, meal, and manure manufactories, an extensive dis-
tillery, and a brewery in the Old Town. Three branches of the
respective establishments of the Union Bank of Scotland, Limited,
the Town and County Bank, Limited, and the North of Scotland,
Bank, Limited, are in operation here, the latter having also a branch
in Fife Keith.
The present Established church was opened for public worship
in 1819; it Is an elegant and commodious edifice, in the neat modern
Gothic style of architecture, with accommodation for a congregation
of eighteen hundred, and is considered one of the handsomest
churches in the north of Scotland. The Episcopalians, a Free Church
community, the United Presbyterians, and Roman Catholics havo
each a plaee of worship. There is also a public reading room and
library, in the former of which the principal daily papers and leading
periodicals are taken, while the library contains a number of nseful
and instructive books ; a chess room is attached to the reading room
for members. A sheriff court, for smalt debt and debt reeovery$cases
and for proofs in ordinary actions and other business, is hold once
a month inLougmore Hall, The monthly markets aro htld ou the
first Friday of overy month, the stance for which is at the south end
of the town, and is of considerable extent. In additon there are
thro; feeing markets, in May aud November, fov the half yearly ser»
vants, and in July for the harvest servants. The parish, which
embraces an area of 18,195 statute acres, contained in 1S81 a popu-
lation of;6,396; of this number 4.339 were returned for the town.

MACDUFF,
GARDENSTOWN,CROVIE,DUBFORD, AND THE PARISH OF GAMRIE.
MACDUFF is a seaport town, in tho parish of Gamrie, situated
about a-mile east from tho town of Banff, on tho opposite side
of the Deveron river, and on the declivity of a hill descending
towards the sea-Bhoro. This town, which is governed by a provost,
bailies, council and police commissioners, has risen, sinco the early
part of the eighteenth century, from being little more than the hut-
tage of a few fishermen, to a place of respectable size and trade. It
is built on the property of the Earl of Fife, whose fine seat lies in the
neighbourhood ; and to a nobleman of this name it is indebted for
its chief improvements and prosperity. Through his influence it
was created a burgh of barony by George ILL, in 1783, when its
name was altered from Doun to its prosont appellation. It ha3 from
that period increased in extent and consequence. It con-
tains three churchos, Board schools, and a school for poor children
of both sexes — the latter called the "Murray Institution," from its
having been founded by a Mr. Murray, of London, a canvas manu-
facturer, and a native of Macduff, in 1849. This school has been
transferred to the School Board in virtue of a scheme made
under the provision of the Educational Endowments (Scotland) Act,
which also provides for the administration of the funds of the insti-
tution, which amount to about £6,000. A handsome town hall has
been built by voluntary subscription, at a cost of £2,100. The church
occupies a conspicuous position on the eminence, and Lord Fife has
ornamented its precincts with a cross, which is highly effective at a
little distance. The same nobleman has munificently expended a
vast sum in the erection and improvement of the harbour, which is
now considered one of the best on the Moray Frith. As a station for
tho herring fishery, it is exceedingly valuable, a great eupply of
that fish being obtained and shipped from this port. There are two
branch banking establishments — the Union Bank of Scotland,
Limited, and the North of Scotland Bank, Limited. The greater
portion of the grain produced for twenty miles eaat of Macduff is
exported hence, as are salmon, cod and herring; and the country
inland is supplied from here with coal, bone manure, and lime.
Several vessels trade with London and the Baltic, tho number of
fishing boats is very considerable, and in the curing of fish there are
S3m« respectablo establishments, and many of the inhabitants
obtain in this branch comfortable and even lucrative employment!
Population in 1881, 3.611.
Gardenstown is also a small seaport village of very romantic
appearance iu the same parish, eight miles east of Banff, and
fourteen west of Fraserburgh. Established, Free, and United
Presbyterian churches, together with two schools, are in the village.
The nearest station is at Macduff, soven miles distant. Population
in 1881, 871-
The parish of Gamiue extends about eleven miles, by an average
breadth of about two and a half, and embraces an area of 17,041
acres. The coast is bold and precipitous and indented with caverns.
The land is partly under tillage and partly in pasture. Crovie is a
small village in this parish, situated one mile east of Gardenstown.
The inhabitants are principally engaged in fishing. Population ot,
the whole parish in 1881,6,736, of whioh 320 belonged to Crovie.

BERWICKSHIRE.
f|lHIS is the most south-easterly county of Scotland, and ia bounded on the east by the North Sea, and on the west by the counties of
X Edinburgh and Roxburgh ; on the north the range of Lammermoor hills separates it from tho county of Haddington, and on the south
it is bordered by Northumberland and Roxburghshire, from which counties it is divided by tho river Tweed. Its form is an irregular
oblong square, measuring from east to west thirty- five miles, and from north to south twenty-two, and its area comprises 297,161 statute
acres, or 461 square miles. In pointof size Berwick ranks as tho twentieth Scottish county, and in population as the twenty-fourth.
Early History. — At the period of the Roman invasion Berwickshire was inhabited by tribe3 of British, called Otadinii ; and it was
subsequently overrun by bands of Saxons, who engrafted their language and manners on those of the original inhabitants. The con-
quests by these foreigners extended a considerable way along tho shores to the east and west; aad in the course of time they gave the
land of which they thus possessed themselves tho title of Lothian, which it still retains in the western division. The entire area of
Berwickshire was comprised in this Saxon territory, which was distinguished by the name of Saxonia, superseding its previous designa-
tion Bernicio, Until the year 1020, this district of country was included within the Kingdom of Northumberland; in that year it was
ceded to King Malcolm II. by Cospatrick, Earl of Northumberland, who settled iu Scotland aud was croated Earl of Dunbar. About tho
beginning of the eleventh century, many Norman and Anglo-Saxon families sottled in Berwickshire, as woll as other parts of Scotland,
aud were the founders of a number of noble houses still ranked in the peerage of the country. It appears likewise, that the town of
Berwick became a settlement of Flemish and other foreign tradesmen ; and it is recorded as a fact that at Berwick origiuated those
laws which were framed and applied in Scotland f.»r the- regulation of burghs and their guild associations. Being the threshold of tho
Scottish kingdom in entering from England, Berwickshire suffered in the succeeding centuries in all the wars between the two hostile
nations, and was occasionally involved iu jurisdictional disputes with its ecclesiastical neighbour, tho Palatine Bishop of Durham and
Berwick, and the bridges aeross tho Tweed were iu general tho main objects of contention. The description of: Berwick will be found
under the more appropriate head of the town. From the variety of successes and disasters which Berwickshire underwent for so many
centuries, and from its successive occupation by different mixed nations, the people of this part of North Britain have not that distinct
Scottish character so directly recognised in places more distant from tho frontier. By their language and personal appearance,
•specially the former, the inhabitants of Berwick aud its neighbourhood are easily particularised, and, iu common with tho Northum-
brians, tboy speak with that remarkable burr which is found nowhere else in tho kingdom. The women are famod for their beauty —
tho meia for their gallant bearing in times of warlike strife. Tho " Men of Morse " distinguished themselves at FlodJen and other
bloody fields, under the command of Lord Home ; and there is a tradition that a party, led to the Holy Land by somo of their
feudal chiefs, obtained ou its ensanguined plains the highest honours for their unconquerable intrepidity. When Charles I. paid
his first visit to Scotland, in the year 1633, Lord Homo met him at Berwick with a train of six hundred Merso gentlemen,
•' gallantly arrayed " on horseback. The present generation has seen that tho yeouiaury of the Merso have lost no portion of the military
spirit of their ancestors.
Surface, Soil, &c. — Berwickshire is divided into three districts, namely Merge, Lammermoor {or Lammennuir), and Lauderdale.
The Merse, so called from the word march, or boundary, is tho largest and most valuable district, occasionally giving name to tho whole
conuty, and embracing that tract of low land between the Lammermoor hills on tho north and tie river Tweed ou tho south, having
Lauderdale for its western boundary. It is the moat compact and extensive piece of level ground iu Scotland, comprising 130,000 statute
acreB ; in appearance it resembles a wide-spread portion of some of the English fertile counties, and being well enclosed, and enriched
with trees and plantations, when viewed from one of tho gentle eminences which its surface occasionally presents, it looks like a vast
garden. Lammermoor, which consists of nearly 90,000 statute acres, is a highly pastoral district, with generally a wild brown aspect,
and runs on the northern border of the Morse, so as effectually to divide the fine vales of Edinburgh and Haddington shires from the
beautiful valley of the Tweed. But for this chain of blackish obstructive hills, the prospect from Edinburgh would be carried the length
of the Cheviots. The district of Lauderdale, which has received this title from tho Leader water, along whose bank it ranges, is a mix-
ture of hill and dale, the land in the valleys being essentially arable ; this portion of the county contains about 67,000 statute acres. Tho
eminences of Berwickshire are not of such magnitude or interest as to require particular description ; those of the greatest altitude
above the level of the sea are— Soutra Hill, 1,716 feet ; Crib Law, 1,015; Clint Hill, 1, 044; Meikle-less Law, on the border of Haddington-
shire, 1,531; Tippet Knowes,l,S23; Dirrington Law, 1,309; and Twin Law, 1,2C0.
Produce, Minerals, Manufactures, &c. — Within the last century very great exertions have been made to improve tl.o
agricultural character of the county, and in this respect it differs nothing from the neighbouring territory of East Lothian; the
country is thickly but not redundantly populated with a most intelligent active peasantry and farming class. The exports of Berwick-
shire consist of great quantities of corn, coal, sheep and eggs; and these, indeed, may bo considered as the extent of its commerce.
Minute investigation has failed in discovering minerals or fossils in sufficient [supply to be of great or general benefit, although some
coal exists in the vicinity of Berwick, and in the parishes of Mordingtou and Cockburnspath ; and limestone is, almost consequently, found
in its proximity. Marl and (rypsum have likewise been raised, and freestone and whiustone of various kinds exist in several parts of the
shire. As coal is introduced from Dnrhani, by an easy land carriage, the district of the Merso does not feel tho absence of that valuable fuel
very severely ; but iu somo other parts of the shire, as throughout the upper portion of the vale of Tweed, this article is dear. Berwick-
shire is strictly pastoral and agricultural ; the principal crops are wheat, barley, oats, beans and turnips, the latter being extensively
cultivated. Manufactures as yet have made little or no progress within its borders ; what is connected with this system of industry finds
its chief seat at the principal town, Berwick. Paper is made at Chirosido Bridge, aud the manufacture of woollens is carried on at Earlston
and Cumledge. Tho herring fishery, which is pursued at Eyemouth and other parts, is also a profitable industry, as is also tho curing of
this fish.
Rivers and Railways. — The wators of this county flow in general either to the south or north-east. The Tweed, which is au
imposing stream, and the most lovely of Scottish rivers, from its sparkling clearness and soft sylvan banks, receives all the currents that
are poured down from tho northern eminences ; it is not susceptible of navigation, but is of great value from its salmon fisheries, which
are under a strict system of water police. The Leader, the Eden, and the united streams of tho Blackadder and the Whitadder course into
the Tweed. The Eye is the only other river ; it falls into the sea at Eyemouth. Tho Eden, which runs southwards from Lammermoor,
has a remarkable fall, near the house of Newton Don, of above forty foot, exhibiting a fine appearance when there is a flood. It is a
peculiarity of tho Blackaddor that no salmon can live in it ; if auy happen to enter they aro said to die in a few days, though tliov are
caught plentifully in tho Whitadder, which also abounds with trout, &c. The principal lines of railway in this county are the North
British and its many branches, and tho North-Eastern. Tho northern extremity of tho North-Eastern Railway is at Berwick; and
here the magnificent Tweed viaduct connects that lino with the North British, and forms with other railways au uninterrupted
communication from Loudon to Aberdeen.— Sco the town of Berwick for a more detailed account of tho viaduct.
Divisions and Representation. — Berwickshire comprehends (exclusive of Berwick town) thirty-three parishes and two parts of
parishes; and contains one royal burgh, Lauder, which until the passing of the Redistribution Bill joined with Haddington, Dunbar,
North Berwick, and Jedburgh in returning one member to the Senate, but was then merged in the county. Borwick-on-Twecd, which is a
muncipalbnrgh.aud formerly sent two representatives to Parliament, is not classed as an integral portion of the shire, and when tho bill
above alluded to was passed, the town was included in tho Berwick-on-Tweed division of Northumberland. The present member for the
county is the Right Hon. Edward Marjoribanks. The parliamentary constituency for 18S7-88 was 5,80-1. The lord lieutenant of the county
is the Earl of Home. By the returns presented to Government in 1871, tho entire county of Berwick contained a population of 80,486,
and by those for 1881, 35,392. The valuation of the countv for 1887-83 was (exclusive of railways) £313,289, and the valuation of
railways, £19,857.

BERWICKSHIRE
BERWICK-UPON-TWEED,
ANCROFT, NORHAM, SCREMERSTON, SPITTAL, TWEEDMOUTH, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS,
BERWICK-UPON-TWEED (so denominated to distinguish it from
Noitb Berwick, in East Lothian, and several Berwicks in Eng-
land), is a corporate borough and seaport, 334 miles n. by w. from
London, 64 N.by w. from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and 49 n. from Mor-
peth ; from the eity of Edinburgh it is distant s.e. 58 miles (by rail),
and from Glasgow e. by s. 108. It is a town of considerable importance,
of Saxon or Teutonic origin. The etymology of its name is as doubt-
ful as the period of its establishment is obscure. Maitlaud, <"hc his-
torian of Edinburgh, entered into a dissertation to prove that the
titlo was transferred by the Saxon founders from a town of note ol
the same name in their own country — in the like manner as
European emigrants designate cities and towns on the continent of
America ; others, and among them Camden, allege that the word
Berwick is deduced from Barwica, signifying " a village belonging
to a manor ;" while a third party, with more feasibility, dcrivo it
from bar and wick, "a castle on the bend of a river." Berwick was
fortified and defended by a garrison at a very remote period of
Briiish history ; it became the chiet town of the district, and was
the centre, on various occasions, of many important transactions.
It stands ou the north side of the river Tweed, about half a mile
from the spot where that stream empties itself into Berwick bay.
Prior to the year 1551, Berwick was alternately in the hands of the
English and Scotch, but it was then erected into a free burgh or dis-
tinct liberty, in some measure independent of either kingdom,
having a small district attached to it, called " Berwick bounds,"
stretching about three miles north, aud the like distance up the
Tweed. It may be added that it is described us a large aud populous
town so early us the reign of David I. of Scotland. It coutinued iu
the possession of the Saxons for some ages, and subsequently was
held by the Danes, until the Scottish king Gregory, contemporary
with Alfred the Great, took it by assault. Malcolm of Scotland
having defeated (he Northumbrians in the year 1018, became pos-
sessed of all the Lothians down to the Tweed, after which time Ber-
wick remained in Scotch bauds till 1296, when it was re-taken by
Edward I. During this period it rose to he a town of the greatest
importance, being second only to London. About the year 1098
Berwick was annexed to the see of Durham by Edgar; but the gift
was soon after resumed, in consequence of the ingratitude of Ralph
Flanibert, who had been consecrated bishop of that see. William
I. of Scotland, who in 1147 had joined Henry's three sons iu rebel-
lion, was taken prisoner near Alnwick, nnd conducted in chains
before Henry, who obliged him to pay homage for the whole of
Scotland, and as a security he was forced to deliver up the fort of
Berwick, together with all the principal forts of Scotland. In 1291
the states of England and Scotland, with Edward I., assembled at
Berwick to determine the claims of Robert Bruce and John Baliol to
the Scottish crown, when, after numerous conferences, ou the 17th
November, in the following year, the king appointed John Baliol
successor to the crown.
The town is surrounded by regular fortifications, the old line
of which extended 2 miles 282 yards ; the present walls, built in the
time of Queen Elizabeth, are only about one mile aud a third in
length, and at the present time form an excellent promenade
entirely round the town. Berwick was formerly the principal town
of the kingdom of Merse ; it stands on a gentle declivity at a short
distance from the sea ; a ditch aided its defenoe on the north-east,
and the river served for a moat on the south side. The ancient
castle, of which there are only a few remains, must have been of
great strength, aud is now merely au attractive object to the
antiquary. Berwick, in modern days, is of considerable consequence.
It is a regular, well-built town, joined to England by a fine biidgo
of hewn stone, of fifteen spacious nnd elegant arches; the whole
length of the bridge is 1,164 feet, and its width is 17 feet. It was
commenced iu 1610, in the reign of James I., and finished in 1634, in
the reign of Charles I., at a cost of £15,000— a heavy sum at that
period. About a quarter of a mile higher up the river is the railway
viaduct, known as the " Royal Border Bridge," opened by Her
Majesty aud the late Prince Albert on the 29th August 1850. This mag-
nificent structure spans the broad valley of the Tweed, and completes
an important link iu the chain of railway communication between
London and Edinburgh by the north-east coast. It forms tie north-
ern extremity of the North-Eastern Railway ; and in magnitude of
construction and grandeur of design is, perhaps, one of the most
remarkable architectural achievements of modern times. The
foundation stone of tlrfs noble structure was laid on the 15th of
May, 1S47, without any public ceremouy. The viaduct consists of
28 circular arches, each 61 feet 6 incbos span, springing from lofty
piers 8 feet 6 inches broad at the narrowest point. One half of the
nrches span the river— here a broad and beautiful stream— and the
remainder are built on the neighbouring land south of the Tweed.
The total length of the bridge is 2,160 feet, and its greatest height
from the bed of the river 126 feet 6 inches, including the parapets ;
its breadth between the parapets is 24 feet, allowing a double line
of rails to belaid. The viaduct is built entirely of stone, with the
exception of the inner part of the arches, which is brick laid in
cement. There are about one million and a half cubic feet of
masonry in the structure, and two millions and a half of bricks
have been placed iu the archeB. The design of the bridge is
elegant, aud the parapets aro adorned on the outside by miniature
corbelled arches. The piers of the bridge, which are protectod by hand-
BOine cutwaters, are curved up perpendicularly, and are narrowed
near the Bpring of the arch by moans of offsets. The parapets and
springs of the arches are of polished stone, but the rest of the
masonry is only rough-hewn. The appearance of the arches is
extremely graceful. When one-half of the arches had beenerocted,
it was considered desirable for the acommodation of the traffic to
erect a temporary bridge across the river, without waiting the
completion of the atone viaduot, so as to avoid the uncertainty of
the river operations. The quantity of timber used in the construc-
tion of the atone and timber bridges was not less than S00.000 cubic
feet. The large emhankmeut at the south end of the bridge, fivo-
eighths of a mile in length, and in somo places 60 feet high,
completes the junction or the Tweedmouth with the Berwick station.
The eutire cost of the viaduct, amounting to about £120,000, was
borne by the York, Newoastle and Berwick Railway Company, now
the North-Eastern. The Tweed viaduct is one of the largest stone
viaducts iu the kingdom. The last arch of this magnificent bridge
was keyed on the 26th March, 1850, by tho wife of the resident
engineer. Tho greatest depth of the water at high tide is 23 feet.
The pier, the construction of which was finished iu 1810, at a cost of
£40,000, is worthy of note ; it stretches a great distance into the sea
and forms a Hue breakwater, the lighthouse being situate at tho
extreme end; the pier affords a fine and salubrious promenade.
The country round hero is generally flat, but well snited to agricul-
tural purposes, aud some fine views are to be obtained about the
town and district. The exportation of coal from the mines
iu tho neighbourhood forms an important feature iu tho com-
merce of the port, while that of grain, manure, and salmon
caught iu the Tweod (the latter sent to tho London markets),
is nearly equally profitable. The principal fishing stations
aro from the mouth of the river to Noiham, a distance of
seven miles. Tho season comnieuces on tho 15th February, aud
terminates on tho 14th September. The port hag tho privilege
of tho Warehousing Act, passed the 6lh of Georgo IV., and is now a
bonded port for the reception of wines aud colonial pioduce. Fivo
newspapers aro published here, viz. :— the Berwick Aih^ertiser, tho
Border Counties Gazette, and Berwickshire Gazette ou Friday ; the
Berwick Journal on Thursday, aud the Berwickshire News on Tues-
day. There are four branch banks, viz.: Messrs. Woods & Co. and
the North-Eastern (late Alnwick aud County), in Hide hill; tho
National Bank of Scotland, Limited, at tho Bridge end ; and tho
British Linen Co.Bank, in Sandgate ; the Berwick aud Tweedmouth
Savings Bank also has an office here. The Town Hall, iu tho Hign
street, is an* imposing building of commanding appearance; tho
spiro is 150 feet in height, in which there is a clock and a peal of
eight bells. The old custom of ringing the curfew is still continued
here, and at eight every evening it is rung at the Town Hall. An-
other remnant of a by-gone age is tho old stocks ry the side of the
Town Hall steps. The Corn Exchange, in Sandgate, is a large and
commodious building, erected by a limited liability company, aud
was opened iu June, 1858. Besides being well suited for the purpose
for which it was built, it is also available for meetings, entertain-
ments, &c. It is well lighted and heated, aud will accommodate
1,500 persons. The Queen's Rooms, in Hide hill, erected by Mr. J,
D. Purves, in 18S0, are also used for meetings, entertainments, &c.
Tho largo hall with gallery will accommodate 1,000 persona. Tho
Institute, in High street, is a very substantial building, erected in
1881, ut a coat of 4J 2,000, It contains reading rooms, museum of
natural history of the district, and a school of art. The Masonic
Hall, situato on the Parade, and erected in 1878, ia also a handsome
stone building, and considerably improves this part of the town.
The other public erections aro the Barracks, tho Infirmary, the
Union Workhouse, and a Templars' Hall. There are three good
hotels — the King's Arms, in Hide hill, the Red Lion, in High street,
and the Station Hotel, by the North-Eastern station, Tweedmouth,
all of which are complete and comfortabla establishments.
The borough, previous to the operation of the Municipal Reform
Act, wasgoverued by a charter granted by James I. The last enact-
ment vested the government iu a mayor, six aldermon, and eighteen
councillors, with a recorder and the usual assistant officers, under
the style of the "Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the Borough of
Berwick-upon-Tweed ; " the same Act divided the borough into three
wards, and provided it with a commission of tho peace ; there is also a
sheriff. Sessions are held quarterly, presided over by the Recorder,
W, T. Greenhow.Esq.; the corporation, as lords of the manor, hold
courts leet and baron twice in the year, and Berwick is included in
the first circuit of county court towns under tho acts for the
recovery of debts. The limits of the borough are defined
by the Boundary Act to comprise the parish of Ber-
wiok and the respective townships of Tweedmouth and Spittal.
The borough was first represented in the English Parliament in tho
reigh of Henry VIII., and from that timo (1529), it continued to send
two members, uutil the passiug of the Redistribution of Seats Bill,
when it was included in the Berwick-upon-Tweed division of North-
umberland (population, 55,847), which extends from Felton on the
south to Berwick ou the uorth, taking in the whole of the coast from
the Coquet to the Tweed, being bounded by tho limits of tho county
on the west. It contains the petty-sessional divisions of Bamburgh,
Coquetdale North, Glendalo, Norhamshire and Islaudshire, Coquet-
dale East (except the parishes of Gloster Hill, Morwick, Acklington,
Acklingion Park, Amble, Hauxley, Warkworth and Tongs tone), and
the muuicipal borough of Berwick-upon-Tweed.
The parish church, dedicated to the Holy Trinity, is a flat-roofed
Gothic pile, begun in 1648, and finished in 1652 ; from being destitute
of either tower or spire, it has a rather singular appearance, but in
th« days of the Commonwealth these were deemed unnecessary orna-
ments. The benefice is a vicarage. Since the public cemetery in tho
North road was opened, it is only in rare cases that interments are
allowed in the churchyard. St. Mary's church, Castlegate, is a neat
stone edifice, erected in 1858, at the expense of the late Captain
GeorgeGordon. The living is a vicarage. The other places of worship
consist of one edifice in connection with the Church of Scotland; three
churches of the Presbyterian Church of England, the church in
Wallace green being a very fine buildlog, built at an expense of
nearly ^6,000; one United Presbyterian church, a Wesleyan, a»
Primitive Methodist, a Baptist, and a Roman Catholic chapel. The
educational establishments of Berwick are the Grammar School, thf j
Coporation Academy (for the children of freemen solely, the salarie a

of the rector and teacher and all other expenses being paid by the
Corporation), two National schools for boys, one for girls, and one
for infants, a British mixed school, and ft Roman Catholic school ;
besides these there are a few private schools.
The weekly market is on Saturday, and one for fat cattle every
alternate Monday ; this latter market was formerly held at
Hide hill, but owing to the great inconvenience caused to ihe general
traffic, it was transferred in 1886 to a more suitable position in
Castlegate. A fair is held on the last Friday in May for horses and
cattle, and there are statutes or "hirings" for servants on
the first Saturdays in March and May. The population of the
muuicipal and local hoard district was in 1871, 18,232, and iu 1881,
13,995, showing an increase in the ten years of 718.
Tweedhouth is ft populous parish, now forming part of the
borough of Berwick. It is situated at the south end of the bridge,
about a quarter of a mile from Berwick, and consists of several
streets, irregularly built, but the general appearance of the place has
been much improved of late years- The North-Eastern station is
situated at the eastern end of the town. The inhabitants are exten-
sively engaged in the salmon fishery ; and the other branches of
trade, exports and imports, are of the like nature with those of Ber-
wick. Works for the manufacture of agricultural implements, and
engineering and boiler works, provide employment for a fair propor-
tion of the inhabitants ; waler works for the supply of Berwick are
also situated here. The Corporation of Berwick are lords of the
manor of Tweedmouth. There is a large public cemetery here.
A new dock was opened on the 4th October, 1876 ; it admits
vessels up to 500 tons burthen, and has an area of 83-a acres,
and a depth of 21ft. ; the cost of construction was about
^35,000. There is railway communication from Tweedmouth
station to the d«ck, by the North-Eastern Railway Co. The places
of worship are the parish church, dedicated to St. Bartholomew (the
living of which is a vicarage), an English Presbyterian church, and
one connected with the Church of Scotland. Population in 1881,
5,420.
Spittal, a populous village in the parish of Tweedmouth, about
three-quarters of a mile from Berwick, is situated at the mouth of
the river. The curing of herrings is carried on, and there are also a
manufactory of spades and shovels, and the extensive manure works
of Messrs. Johnson & Co. and James R. Black & Co. Limited. The
gas works for the borough are situate here. Many good houses have
been built for the accommodation of visitors, who resort hither for
sea-bathing. There is also a valuable mineral spa, the waters of
which contain iron, lime, magnesia, and sulphate of soda. The
places of worship are an Established Church of England, dedicated
to St. John the Evangelist ; a Presbyterian Church of England, and
a Baptist chapel. There are also a British Bchool and a National
school. Ord is a township in the parish of Tweedmouth.
Ancroft is a village and parish in the county of Northumberland,
five and a half miles s.w, from Berwick. The village of Ancroft
(or St. Ann's Croft, as it was formerly called) was at one time of
much greater extent, but being visited by the plague in 1666, it was
destroyed by fire, by order of the Government ; the foundations of
many houses are found in the adjacent fields. The church of St.
Ami (from which the place derives its name), is a very ancient
edifice, and was originally founded in 1092. It was iu the time of
the Edwards converted into a, peel tower for the protection of the
inhabitants against the Scotch. The living is a vicarage. There is
also a place of worship for English Presbyterians. There is a
National school and a Presbyterian school at Ancroft Moor. Ghes-
wick is a hamlet in this parish. Goswick, a small township and
hamlet previously belonging to Holy Island parish, was in March,
1887, transferred for civil purposes to the parish of Ancroft. Popu-
lation in 1881, 1,622.
Scremerston is a scattered village in the county of Northumber-
land, three and a half miles s.s.e. from Berwick, its post town. Here
are the extensive collieries, lime and brick works of the Scremers-
ton and Shofeswood Coal Co. There is an Established church,
dedicated to St. Peter, and a National school here.
Norham is a populous village in the parish of its name, on the
south bank of the Tweed, in the county of Northumberland, situated
seven and a half miles s.w. from Berwick. It consists chiefly of one
long wide street, with a green in the cenire, on which stands* a cross.
The houses are well built and very respectable, and the laud around
is very productive and well cultivated. There is a station ou the
Kelso branch of the North-Eastern Railway, about three-quarters of
a mile from the village, and also a station at Velvet Hall on the same
branch, for the convenience of the district ; it is situate about midway
between Berwick and Norham. A bridge crossing the Tweed connects
it with Berwickshire, and at Horncliffe the river is also spanned by a
very neat suspension bridge. The ancient castle of Norham stands ou
an eminence a short distance from the village ; the extent of the ruins
shows that the fortress had formerly heen of great strength and
importance. The tower is still standing, though much dilapidated,
aud consists of four storeys, 70 feet high, with many vaults or
prisons, which are yet entire. The grounds surrounding it are
cultivated as a market garden. The rnins have within recent years
been repaired, with a view to their preservation. The churob,a fine
Norman structure, dedicated to St, Cuthbert, is very ancient, the
origual one being built in 840; the middle aisle is the only
portion of that remaining; tho church bad anciently the privilege
of sanctuary for thirty-seven days. The living is a vicarage in the
patronage of the dean and chapter of Durham. There are also places
of worship for the Free Church, Presbyterian, and Primitive Metho-
dist denominations. There is a National school iu the village. Felk-
ington, Grindon, Horncliffe, Loan End, Longridoe, Norham
Maihs, Shoreswood, Thoenton and Twizel are townships in this
parish. In 1881 the pariah had a population of 2,682, and the village
920 of that number.

CHIKNSIDE,
CHIRNSIDE BRIDGE AND ALLANTON.
CHIRNSIDE is a parish of 5,553 acres, lying in the eastern part of
tbe Merge, on the northern side of the Whitaddcr, and extend-
ing four miles in leugth, by about tliree in breadth. The village is
50 miles e. by a. from Edinburgh, 13>£ n.n.e. from Greenlaw, 9 n,w.
from Berwick, and 6 n, from Duns. It consists of two streets, the
buildings of which are for the most part detached and straggling,
and extend nearly a mile in length. The upper part of the village
is now greatly improved by tbe erection of several good stone houses.
There is an excellent supply of water brought from about a mile dis-
tant. Tho places of worship are a church of the Establishment, a
United Presbyterian church, and a Free church. From the hill on
which the village is situated a tine view of many miles of fertile and
well cultivated country, interspersed with many gentlemen's seats,
is obtained, the view to the south being bounded by the Cheviot
hills. The estate of Ninewells, the family seat of the Humes, is
in this neighbourhood, and David Hume, the celebrated historian,
though born in Edinburgh, was from his infancy brought up in this
parish, which may therefore proudly claim him as its own; the man-
sion is at present occupied by the Hon; Edward Majoribauks, m.p.
Some vestiges of aucient encampments are discernible in this district.
Population of Chirnside parish in 1881, 1,516, and of the village, 939.
Less than a mile west of the village is the pretty rural bainlet
of Chirnside Bridge, where a good bridge crosses the Whitadder,
and over which also tbe railway is carried by means of auother
bridge, a handsome structure of stone. Upon the banks of tbe river
a species of gypsum is lound, and in other parts of the district
abundance of marl is obtained.
At Allanton, a delightful little rural village, in the parish of
K<t mm, oue mile and a half s. from Chirnside and 7 n.e. from Duns,
two rivers— the Blackadder and the Whitadder— unite, aud a neat
stone bridge crosses the mingled streams. Blackadder House, the
seat of Sir George Lauderdale Houstoun Boswall, is in the centre of
the village.

COLDINGHAM
TS a parish of 24,021 acres, ten miles in length, and five in breadth,
lying on the coast of Berwickshire, having ou its north and east
sides the German Oceau. The village, a burgh of barony, is 45
miles s.e. of Edinburgh, 21 n.n.e. of Greenlaw, 17 s.e. of Dunbar, 13
n.n.e. of Duns, 11 n.n.w. of Berwick, and 4 from Ayton. It is
charmingly seated upon a small eminence in tbe centre of a fine
valley, a short distauce from the sea, near to St. Abb's Head, a
noted point of laud projecting into the sea. A lighthouse was in
18152 erected on this point, and latterly a fog signal. Its antiquity is
unquestionably great, for it is distinctly pointed out in Ptolemy's
map of Britain, under the Roman sway, and in this respect surpasses
Berwick and other more considerable towns whose existence is not
authenticated for some ages posterior. About a mile west from St.
Abb's is Coldiugham Loch ; it is of a triangular figure, upwards of a
mile in circumference, aud 250 feet above the level of the sea,
covering about thirty acres. On the top of Ernsbeugh, 440 yards
north of the locb, are the ruins of two oblong British camps, called
the Tuulaw, i.e., Towulaw, in order to distinguish them from other
camps beyond Moorburu, called Outlaw, i.e., Outerlaw. On the
soutu side of the town are tbe ruins of the once magnilicent and
well-endowed priory of Coldiugham, rebuilt by King Edgar, who
personally assisted at its consecration. All that now remains of it is
the east gablo and north Bide (which form part of the modern parish
kirk), with a few btraggling fragments, including a small Saxon
arch, part of the palace said to have been erected here by the roytl
founder of the priory. Atone time this religious house stood at mo
head of such establisnmeuts in Scotland, aud was famed far aud
wide for its wealth aud importance. When ti.e church of the priory
was destroyod, its fine -toned bell, according to tradition, was carried
off to Durham. So early an the seventh century a nunnery was
settled hero, but of what order is unknown, in which St. Ebha.tbe
daughter and sister of kings, became abbess in 670. The history of
no religious house would throw so much light on tbe bloody scenes
aud misguverumeut of Scotland, from the fourteenth to the seven-
teenth century as this priory, with its history carefully written.
The church was considerably altered aim restored iu 1857, and will
seat oVer 500 worshippers. Fast Castle, in this neighbourhood, is
supposed to bo tbe place described as Wolf's Craig, iu the novel of
the ■' Bride of Lammernioor." The village consists of two or three
humble streets, with a cross in the centre. The volunteers having
been disbanded, the hall formerly used by them is now let for
meetings, entertainments, &c. The village lias been much resorted
to within late years by soa-bathors ; the scarcity of suitable accoin-
modation and distance from the railway being, however, a drawback.
At Coldiugham Shore, about a mile distant, herring fishing is carried
on, and a new harbour is now (1HSS) being made for the protection
of the boats engaged iu this industry. The population of the parish
of Colilingham was in 1661, 8,1511.

COLDSTREAM,
WITH THE PARISHES AND VILLAGES OF ECCLES, BIRGHAM, LEITHOLM, CORNHILL AND NEIGH DOURHOODS.
OOLDSTREAM is a town find burgh of barony, in the parish of
^ that name. The parish was anciently calleil Lennel, but it is
a matter of uncertainly when the name was changed, as it appears
from many old charters that it was so called in the 11th and 12th
centuries. The town is 47 miles s.e. from Edinburgh, 14 s.s.w. from
Berwick, 10 s.E. from Greenlaw, the like distance s. from Duns,
and 9 n.e. from Kelso, situated on the north bank of the Tweed,
and formerly derived importance from a ford on that river. By this
passage Edwnrd I, entered Scotland, with hie forces, in 1296; and
many other English and Scottish armies, before the union of tue
crowns, made their way by this facility to ravage the couutry of
their respective enemies. It was last used by a Scottish army as
an entrance into England in 1640, when tlio covenanters found it
necessary to have recourse to that extreme measure against Charles
I. The Tweed is crossed at this place by a strong bridge of free-
stone, erected in 1766, at a cost of about £7,000, John Smeaton
being the engineer. It consists of seven ai dies, including two lor
abutments, and is 905 feet long and 25 feet wide. In 1S30 it under-
went a thorough repair at a cost of about £'2,000. It is placed at a
distance of a furlong from the east end of the town, and from this
spot a very delightful view np and down the woody bauksof the
river presents itself. This neighbourhood is the scene of Sir
Walter Scott's poem " Marniion." The town is irregularly
built, quite Scottish in its appearance, notwithstanding its proximity
to England, while its border situation atone time rendered it eligible
to participate with Gretna Green in the clandestine matrimonial
trade. During the winter season Coldstream is much resorted to by
the nobility and gentry for foxhunting; the Duke or Buecleuch's
and the Berwickshire and East Lothian pucks meet regularly in the
neighbourhood. The town is governed by commissioners of police
for the burgh. Justice of peace courts are held sis occasion requires
and sherilT small debt courts four times a year. The trade here is not
extensive, no manufactures being carried on in this locality. Two pro-
prietary banking establishments have branches hero, and there is a
good inn. A Mechanics' Iustitntion,erected in High street, in I863,at a
cost of.£l,200, coutaiusa large lecture room, library, reading rooms.
&c; the funds for the erection were raised partly by subscriptions
and donations. The places of worship are. an Established church,
a Free church, two Uuited Presbyterian churches, aud a meeting
house for the Catholic Apostolic community. At the east end of
town. erected by the friends of the late Charles Marjoribauks;Esq.,M. p.
for Berwickshire, is a handsome memorial to record the successful
result of tlie contested election for the couuty in 18b2. In 1852 Sir
John Marjoribanks ,Bart., of Lees, had powerful hydraulic machinery
erected within his grounds, by means of which water is
forced up from the Tweed into a large tank ou the top of
the stablo tower, from whence the town is supplied.
In connection with the waterworks is a neat fountain, situated in the
centre of the market place, erected by the same gentleman. In
recognition of this public boon, a handsome obelisk was erected
near tho church by the inhabitants in honour of the donor, with an
inscription commemorative of the event. General Monk resided at
Coldstream at the critical period when he awaited a favourable
opportunity to advance into England, make a decisive impression,
by the presence of his army, and at once effect the Restoration.
During the wiuter of 1659-60 he raised here a regiment, which was
then, and *as ever since been, denominated '• The Coldstream
Guards." Previous to the Reformation this place could boast of a
rich priory of Cistercian nuns, but of the building not even a frag-
ment or vestige is now to be discovered. The weekly market,
formerly held ou Thursday, is now discontinued. The parish con-
tains 8,320 acres, and in 1881 had a population of 2,561. the town
containing 1,616 of that number.
The villaco of Eccles is nearly six miles from Coldstream, in a
highly cultivated parish of that name; the latter extending nearly
eight miles in length by six in breadth, lying to the west of Cold-
stream, and bordering the river Tweed. It contains about 12,418
acres. The surface of the country is in general level, the soil rich,
and the grounds are well enclosed. There was once a uunuery of
great magnitude and repute in the parish; this religions edifice,
however, has shared the fate of the one that existed at Coldstream.
" Deadriggs," on Crosshall Farm, in this district, was formerly tho
Bcene of a deperate battle, aud a stone which rises nine feet above
the surface of the ground is said to mark the grave of one of the
Percys who fell in the contest. At Biugham aud Leitholm:, two
small villages, the principal retail business of the parish is carried
ou. The parish in 188L contained a population of 1,546.
Cornhill is neat small village in the parish of its name.
Formerly it was a part of North Durham, from which it was sepa-
rated by Act of Parliament in 1814, and uuited wirti the county of
Northumberland; it is situated one and a half miles from Cold-
stream. Coldstream station, on the Kelso "branch of the North-
Eastern railway, is situated here, and in Septomher, 1887, a new
branch to Alnwick was opened for traffic. The soil of the parish is
rich and fertile, aud in a high state of cultivation. Tho church,
dedicated to St. Helen, formerly il chapel of ease to Norham,is a neat
structure in the early English style. It was first erected, probably,
iu 1082, but was rendered a distinct benefice in 1730. The living is
a perpetual curacy iu the gift of the Dean and Chapter of Durham,
From the rectory a beautiful view of the Twoed presents itself, aud
in the distance may be seen the celebrated Floddeu Field. There
is a commodious inn in the village called the Collingwood Arms,
where every accommodation can be had. Fairs are held on tho first
Monday in March (for hiring), and auction sales for cattle, sheep,
] &C, are also held every alternate Monday. Population in 1881,688.

CRANSHAWS,
ABBEY SAINT BATHANS, BUNKLE WITH PRESTON, ELLEMFORD, AND LONGFORMACUS.
C CRANSHAWS is a small thinly populated parish, of about 8,708
J acres, lying amonyst the Lammermoor hills, and intersected
by the parish of Longformacns ; it is about 30 miles rc. by s. from
Edinburgh, 15 s.E. from Haddington, and about 12 n.w. from Duns.
The old castle of Cranshaws is an ancient edilice of great strength,
and still entire. The remains of many encampments show, what both
traditionary and historical records testify, that this part of the country
has been the scene of much bloodshed aud strife. In 18S1 Cran-
Bhaws had a population of 10(>.
The parish of Abbey Saint Bathans is seven miles from Duns,
also situatad in the midst of the Lammermoor bills. The soil is light
and dry, and on the banks of the Whitadder fertile and well culti-
vated; but the hilly district is barren and covered with heath.
The remains of an ancient abbey of Bernardines, founded in 1170,
and dedicated to St. Bathan by one of the Countesses of March,
form the only object of interest or curiosity in the parish. Edwin's
or Wodiu's, about a mile below St. Bathans, on the Whitadder,
consists of three concentric circles of Btone, seven and ten feet
distant from each other. The diameter of the innermost oircle is
about HO feet. The parish has an area of 4,797 acres, and in 1881 had
u population of 250.
Bunkle and Preston is a united parish forming a square of
nearly six miles, and containing 9,189 acres. The soil on the high
lands towards the Lammermoor hills was at one time thin, dry
and poor; but by the application of lime aud marl it has been
much improved. The rest of the parish, particularly on the banks
of the Whitadder, is a fertile loam, and well cultivated. During
the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries the lauds in the parish of
Bonkill (tlieu so called) were in the possession of a family of the
same name ; in the wars of the Bruce, Sir Alexander de Bonkill is
frequently noticed. One of his female descendants, marryiug Sir
John StewarJ, had a son, who was creatod Earl of Angus in 1329 ;
tbis title in 1377 merged into the family of Douglas, and they, iu
addition to the title of Earls of Angus, are sometimes called Lords
of Bonkill. Population in 1881, 726.
Longformacus parish, likewise in the Lammermoor district, is
billy, and for the most part pastoral, but the low grounds are well
cultivated; it is about 12 miles in length, and six in breadth, and
contains 19.532 acres. The village which is about seven miles s. from
Duns, has been improved by the erection of several neat cottages, a
school, and a residence for the master. An Established church and
one for a Free Congregation are the places of worship. Two strik-
ingly fine conical hills, called the " Derrinjiton Laws,'' rise in this
parish, and form conspicuous objects in the distance. Ellemford,
threo miles from Longformacus, is in the same parish, and is much
frequented in the summer season by anglers and sportsmen.
Population in 1831,385.

station on the North British line from Restou to St. Boswells,
situated about half a mile on the cist side of tho town. It lios
nearly in the centre of the county, on a tine plain, under the southern
skirts of Duns Law, upon which hill the old town of Duns stood pre-
vious to its being burnt down. Its present position is at the head
of a plain twenty-live miles long, encompassed ou three sides by
the Lammermoor ridge, the river Wbitadder running by it. This
river, which produces tho finest trout, affords ample sport to the
angler. Duns Law, which rises to the height of about live hundred
feet at the back of the town, is remarkable in the religious history
of Scotland. On the Gth of June, 1639, when Charles I. with his
army lay encamped at it place called the Birks, on the opposite side
of tho Tweed, with the intention of reducing the Coveuanters, a
Scottish covenanted army of seventy thousand men, under General
Leslie, took up their position here, to defend the country from in-
vasion. The army had a battery of forty caunau, ou tho brow of the
hill, pointing in the direction of the king's camp. After lying in
this position for three weeks, Charles I. was induced by their
threatening attitude to enter into a treats, in virtue of which tho
two armies were dissolved. The scenery from Duns Law may be
classed as beautiful, and would well repay a abort sojourn in the
town by the tourist or visitor.
Duns is a place of groat antiquity, but from its situation near the
border, it was frequently destroyed by the English before the acces-
sion of James to the throne of England. Ou one of fiese occasions
the town records were burnt, so that no account of its origin or
early history has been transmitted to later ages. The present town
is generally well built, the streets, lighted with gas, containing a few
well furnished a hops. It is abundantly supplied with water, and there
are two hotels, viz., the White Swan and the Black Bull. There aru
several good villas in the suburbs, which give the town an improving
appearance, and in the towu are three branch banking houses. The
other principal businesses may be comprised in a brewery, corn
mills, a rope walk, and the grain trade. Duns in a commercial
point of view may be considered to be declining, from the fact that
the population is decreasing; the weekly market held on Tuesday,
and formerly well attended, is now nearly extinct, and the grain
trade has also fallen off to a large extent. The fairs for sheep, cattle,
&c, all of which were well known, may now be said to be nearly if
not quite obsolete. A sale by auction is held every alternate Monday
for cattle, by Messrs. R. G. & W. B. Swan, and is well attended. A
fair for hiring servants is held the first Tuesday iu March, and
single hirlngs are held on the first, Tuesday in May aud November.
The town is governed by a chief magistrate and commissioners
under the General Police aud Improvement Act, 1802 ; the feuars
manage, by a council of nine, the property vested in them. A
justice of pence court is held on the first Monday of every month,
and a sheriff's court eight times iu tho year, viz., the last Friday in
January, February, March, Mav, June and November, tiie second
Friday iu July, and the first Friday in October, at both of which
debt claims of limited amount are adjudicated. A civil court is
also held every Friday, except during the vacations, which are
arranged by tho sheriff. The Towu Hall, a fine Gothic building,
standing in the centre of the market place, was originally founded
by the Earl of Moray, but the present edifice was erected iu 1816, by
the feuars, assisted by subscriptions. There is a Corn Exchange and
afine structure called the County buildings, iu Newtown street, where
the courts are held, and which also contaius the police station. The
learned and celebrated metaphysician and theologist, Joannes Duns
Scotus, was born here in 1274, aud died at Cologne iu 1308. The Rev.
Thomas Boston, author of the "Fourfold State" aud other works,
Abraham Robertson, ll.d., professor of astronomy at Oxford, and
Thomas M'Crie, d.d., in Edinburgh, were likewise born here. Duug
Castle, a fine modern mansion, iu tho castellated stylo, stands about
half a mile north-west of the towu. The ancient edifice was the
stronghold of Randolph, Earl of Moray, the nephew and co-patriot of
Bruce; it is now the seat of William James Hay, Esq., and the
interior decorations of the house and the paintings with which it is*
embellished, render it one of tho fiuest residences in this district of
Scotland. Duns Castle was originally built in the year 1320, by the
celebrated Earl of Moray; it was restored and considerable addi-
tions made to it in 1820, by its then proprietor. Colonel Hay. Among
tho paintings in Duns Castle are many saved from the Seton gallery.
In particular the well known family group representing the sixth
Lord Seton, the attached friend of Queen Mary, surrounded by his
family, as also several portraits of the Stuarts, presented by the
exiled Royal Family to an ancestor of Mr. Hay. The places of
worship are an Established church, a Free church, three belonging
to the United Presbyterians, an Episcopalian church, and a Roman
Catholic chapel. Tho parish church was burnt down in February,
1879, but was rebuilt on a larger scale by tho heritors of the parish,
at a cost of upwards of £4,000; many improvements were also
effected in the internal arrangements, and in December, 1880, it
was re-opened for public worship. The parish of Duns, which
contains about 11,390 acres, had In 1881 a population of 3,353, the,
towu comprising 2.437 of that number.
At Cumlkdge, about two miles north from Duns, there is a large
stoara and water mill, for the manufacture of blankets andplaidiugs.
The mill was erected about thirty years ago by Mr. William Laidlaw,
its present enterprising and spirited proprietor, and it employs
about one hundred hands. It is the largest blanket manufactory in
this part of Scotland.
Edrom is a parish and village, the latter about S}\ miles e. from
Duns, situated near the road leading from that towu to Cuiruside,
and ou the hanks of tho YYhitaddcr. About half a mile from the
village is a station on the Berwiok and Si. Boswells branch of the
North British Hue. The parish of Edrom, which is ten miles iu
length by six in breadth, and contains about 9,545 acres, is watered
by the Blackadder and Whitaddor streams. Duns Spa, once cele-
brated for its mineral properties, is on the borders of this parish.
Much of the Boil is fertile, aud produces excellent corn. There is an
Established church and a Board school here. The parish of Edrom
(which also contains the village of Allanton, given with Chirnside),
contained in 1881 a population of 1,514.
Langton is a parish comprisiug the village of Gavinton, the
latter situated 2 miles s.w. from Duns, aud half a mile s. of the
site of the old village of Langton, which has entirely disappeared.
The present village, which is neat and regular iu its form, obtained
its name from Mr. Gavin, the late proprietor of the estate ol
Langton ; it uow iuclud ;s the whole parish, aud belongs to the Hon.
Major Robert Baillio Hamilton. Formerly the proprietor of Langton
occupied a castle in Langton Wood, but for the last ceutury the
family have resided at the mausiou here; Langton House, which
has been rebuilt on a palatial scale, is in the baronial style of
architecture. In a small chapel iu Langton Wood, between the years
1070 aud 1089, the Presbyterians used to assemble for worship, aud
it was iu this humble and secluded temple that Veitch ana some
other eminent divines occasionally preached. After the latter
period it was used for a short time by the Episcopalians, after which
it fell into decay, and not a trace of the building now remains.
Upou the top of the hill called Raecleaughead are the vestiges of
an aucieut British camp. The parish church of Langton, situate
at Gavinton, was restored iu 1873, at a cost of about .£2,000. It is
beautifully situated on an eminence, aud the tower and spire can
be seen from a long distance. There is also a Free church and a
Board school in the village, the latter erected in 1874. The acreage
of iho parish of Langton is about 7,139, and tho population in 1881
was 505.

EARLSTON,
LEGERWOOD, REDPATH AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
EARLSTON (anciently Ercihloun) is a parish find village, the
hitter 511 miles s.e. from Edinburgh, 11 w. by n. from Kelso, 18
s.w. from Duns, 15 n. from Jedburgh, 10 B.W. from Greenlaw, 8%
N.R. from Galashiels, and 7 s. from Lander. The situation of this
village is at once rare and beautiful, being seated in a rich valley
encompassed by hills of n moderate height, which are interspersed
by thriving plantations, and in a state of high cultivation ; the
Leader river flows on the west of the parish, and the Eden on the
east. At one time the trade of the village and its neighbourhood
was coufinod to weaving certain fabrics for the Glasgow houses,
but now the manufacturing of woollens and ginghams is carried on,
the latter having never been equalled for excellence of quality. At
the west end of the village, situated on the bank of the Leader, may
be seen the ruins of an old tower, which was the residence of Sir .
Thomas Learmouth, commonly called" the Rhymer," who flourished
in the thirteenth century. A stone in the wall of the church bears
the following inscription in ancient characters, " Auld Rhymer's race
lies in this place." Cowdeu Kuowles, the residence of Colonel
Charles Hope, j.r., is an ancient building, standing on the side of ft
hill, the locality of which is famous in Scottish song. There are
two fairs — on the 29th of Juno Rnd the third Thursday in October, for
cattle and horses, and a cattle and sheep market every alternate
Monday, also a corn market weekly during the winter, and every

EYEMOUTH,
AYTON, BURNMOUTH, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
EYEMOUTH is on ancient little soaport and burgh of barony in
the parish of its name, GO miles £. from Edinburgh, 21 n,e.
lrora Greenlaw, the like distance s.e. from Dunbar, 20 miles n.
from Coldstream, IQH n.e. from Duns, eight n. from Berwick, and
three from Ayton station on the North British Railway. It lies at
the mouth of the Eye, where that river discharges its waters into
the North Sea, from which circumstance the town and parish takes
its name. The port is a very ancient one, being known as such as
early as the reign of Alexander II., when it was resorted to by the
monks of that age as a commodious harbour for importing supplies
for their establishment, and for shipping wool, hides, &c, in wnieh
they trafficked. Shipping can work into and out of the bay at all
times of the tide, or lie at anchor in the haveu secure from all
winds, except the north and north-east, or when the passage cannot
be effected up the Frith of Forth ; and the port is occasionally
frequented by wind bound vessels. The herring fishery is a source
of profitable employment to the greater part of the inhabitants,
there being 96 boats regularly employed during the season. This
number is, however, frequently largely supplemented by boats from
other parts, the total number engaged in this industry being as high
as 132. In October, 1881, 43 large boats were employed at the white
winter fishing, but in the terrible storm on the 14th of that month,
when 129 lives were lost from this port aloue, the number of boats
was reduced to 28. The annual produce of the fishing now amounts
to about £40,000. The trustees of the harbour obtained the sum of
£25,000 from the Public Works Loan Commissioners to accelerate
the long desired improvements of the harbour, the works in con-
nection with which were completed in 1887, but unfortunately have
disappointed the expectations formed of them and aro not as useful
and convenient as was hoped. In addition to the above a railway
company haB been formed, styled the Eyemouth Railway Company,
with a capital of £30,000 in 3,000 shares of £10 each. Tlio company
is formed for the purpose of constructing a line from Eyemouth to
Burnmouth, connecting it with the North British system. The
scheme has not, however, received as yet sufficient pecuniary sup-
port to encourage its promoters to commence the necessary opera-
tions. Eyemouth was a great depot for smugglers ; it is affirmed
that at one time almost every house had secret cellars connected
with it, wherein those engagod in the illicit trade concealed the
goods and liquors landed here from the luggers which frequented
the harbour and neighbouring shores. The vigilance and energy of
the preventive service, together with a judicious alteration of the
duties, have, however, loug Bince destroyed this illegitimate mode
of acquiring wealth, and turned the trade of the town into more
honourable and less hazardous channels. On a small promon-
tory, which stretches out into tho sea, there are tho remains of a
regular fortification, supposed to have been constructed by a French
officer entrusted with tbo command of tho Queeu Regent's troops.
A church of the Establishment, a Freo church, an Evangelical
Union church, and chapels for Primitive Methodists and United
Presbyterians are the places of worship. A handsome school was
erected in 1876. The St. Abb's Lodge of Master Masons and the
Laud o' Cakes Royal Arch Chapter hold their meetings here, in a
neat lodge room formed in 1757 ; it was iu this room that Burns, the
poet, was made a Royal Arch Mason. Fairs are held, ou the first
Thursdays of June and October, The parish of Eyemouth, which
embraces an area of 1,004 statute acres, contained in 18S1 a popula-
tion ol 2,930, the burgh having 2,825, and landward 110.
Ayton is a pariah and village, the latter 2}<> miles from Eyemouth,
and 8 n.w. from Berwick, oecupyiog a delightful situation on the left
bank of the Eye, on the main line of railway between Edinburgh and
the South. The parish contains about 6,699 acres, and describes an
area of about 4 miles each way, including about 2 miles of sea coast,
which is here bold and rooky; more inland the Boil is rich, produc-
ing all kinds of grain. Several vestiges of encampments are discern-
ible through the parish, aud urns, with pieces of broken armour,
have been occasionally brought to the surfaco by the plough. A
church, the foundation Btoue of which was laid Septembor 8th, 1864,
was erected near to the old one, which for many years past had been
falling into decay. It is in the English Gothic style of the 14th cen-
tury, with a lofty tower, aud contains sittings for neary 800 persons.
The cost was about ±'7,000, to which sum the late Mr. Innes was a
liberal contributor. There are two United Presbyterian churches in
the village, one of which, a handsome building, was erected in 1871,
on tho same site of a former one built in 1778. A justice of the peace
court is held here monthly, and a sheriff's court for the recovery of
Binall debts is hold four times a year. Population of the parish in
1881, 2,039 ; of the village, 862.
Burnmouth is a small fishing village, having a harbour situated
at the foot of an almost perpendicular lodge of rock ; the cottages
standing near to high water mark give it a very rwinantic appear-
ance. The heights in the vicinity afford very beautiful and varied
scenery, extending to the Elldons on the south, Lammermoor on the
we3t, and Bamborough on the east— the north being the ocean. It is
about 2}>j miles from Ayton and 6 from Berwick. It is a coast-guard
station, and there is a railway station cloae to tho entrance to the
village, on the North British line. There is a spacious Board school
in the village, but there is no place of worship. Eighteen boats are
employed and ttitioned here lor herring fisbiug, and ten of a larger
class for white fishing in the winter season.

FOULDEN AND MORDINGTON.
TjlOULDEN is a pariah and village, the latter one of the prettiest
Jj little places in the county, and was formerly a burgh of barony;
62 miles e. by s. of Edinburgh, 10 E. of Duns, and 5 n.e. of Berwick,
pleasantly situated on the north side of the Whitadder river, which
is here confined between steep banks. Within the last 25 years the
dwellings have been nearly all rebuilt in a neat and picturesque
style. The parish, which lies in the eastern part of the Merse
district, is two and a half miles in length by two in breadth, bounded
by Ayton on the north and Hutton on the south, and contains about
8,278 acres. Foulden church is celebrated as having been the meet-
ing place of the commissioners sent by Queen Elizabeth to vindicate
her execution of Mary* Queen of Scots. In 1881 the parish had a
population of 393.
The parish of Mordington lies in the south-eastern corner of the
county, and the kirk is about one mile from Foulden. It was in the
mansion house of Mordington that Cromwell, when he passed the
Tweed for the first time, established his quarters. It has been
erroneously asserted that the Princess Margaret was married to
James IV. in Lamberton church (now in ruins) in this parish. At
the boundary of the parish, with the liberties of Berwick, is the
hamlet of Lamberton, and at this place (within the Scottish border)
marriages were solemnised in the same summary manner, and on
precisely the same principles, as they were at better known Gretna.
The remains of a Danish camp, Hdrington Castle, situate at top of a
steep rock, and the '• Witches' Know," 649 feet high, where,
last century several unfortunate women were burned
tor witchcraft, are objects not unworthy the notice of the traveller
journeying through this part of the county. Ironstone some years
ago was discovered within the parish, and subsequently coal has
been got on the estate of Major Charles Fred srick Campbell Renton,
of Mordington House. The pariah contains about 2,939 acres, and
had in 1881 a population of 367.

HUTTON AND PAXTON
ARE two small, pleasant and rural villages in the parish of
Hntton and district of Morse, lying to the west of Berwick
bounds, from which the parish is divided by the river Whitadder.
Hntton is eitnate about seven miles from Berwick, its post town, iu
the northern part of the parish, and Pax ton, five miles distant from
Berwick, its post town, is iu the eastern quarter. Tho parish con-
tains 5,516 acres. The Tweed, which bounds Hntton parish on the
south, is crossed by an elegant suspension bridge, called the Union
bridge, from a point near Paxton, toaplaco a little below Horn-
cliffe, a village in the county of Northumberland. It forms the
only connection of the two sides of the river between Coldstream
and Berwick, from which last named town it is frequently visited
by parties of pleasure. It admits two carriages abreast, and has
been of great service in facilitating the introduction of coal and
lime into Berwickshire. The parish church is situated at Hutton.
The Rev. P. Redpath, the erudite translator of Bcethius, and author
of the " Border HiBtory," was at oue time minister of this parish.
Paxton House, the residence of Colonel David Milne Home, is noted
for its picture gallery. A new school and school house were erected
at Paxton in 187U, by Jean Milne Home and David Milne Home,
mother and father of Colonel David Milne Home, of Paxton House,
and is an ornament to the village. There is also a reading room
and library, of about 900 volumes, in the village of Paxton, supported
byithe generosity of Colonel D. M. Home, and by members' subscrip-
tions. The parish of Hutton iu 1881 contained a population of 962,
tho village of Paxton at the same period having 240.

LAUDER,
WITH THE VILLAGES OF BLAINSLIE, CHANNELKIRK, OXTON, AND THIRLSTANE.
JAUDER is an nncient royal burgh, and the capital of its
J parish, as it is of the district of Lauderdale; 25 miles s.e. of
Edinburgh, 35 w. of Berwick, 21 n. of Jedburgh, 22 s.w. of Cold-
stream, 2D s.w. of Duns, 17 s.w. of Kelso, 12 w. of Greenlaw, 7 N. of
Earlston, and about 0 miles from the Stow station on the North
British railway. It is situated in the vale of the Leader, on the
main road from Edinburgh to Kelso, and consists principally of a
line of houses on each side of the thoroughfare, at the west end of
which is the town house. The buildings are plain and of irregular
construction, and the town was destitute of any edifice that could lay
claim to particular notice until of lato years. Now there are good
pcbool premises, neat and substantial bouses, an excellent inn (the
Black Bull) in the centre of the town, where every accommodation
will be found ; two banks, and a few tasteful villas in the neighbour-
hood. The trade is chiefly of a local and domestic nature, and
manufactures have not as yet imparted their benefits to this part of
the district. The banks and the inns, and some well stored shops
ropreseut the main business of the place. A Freemason's Lodge is
held in the Town Hall. The charter constituting Lauder a royal
burgh was renowed in 1502, and the government vested in two
bailies and seven councillors, chosen annually from amongst the
freemen of the burgh. A justice of peane court is held on the fourth
Wednesday in January, March, May, July, September and November,
and sheriff small debt courts on the last Wednesday of February,
first Wednesday of July, and first Monday of October. By the
Reform Act, Lauder was joined with Haddington, Dunbar, North
Berwick and Jedlmrjh iu returning one member to Parliament, but,
under the provisions of the Redistribution of Seats Act, is now
included in the c aunty.
The places of worship are a church of the Establishment,
and Free and United Presbyterian churches. The first-named
church, which stand-* to the south of the town house, was
erected in 167!*, when the Duke of Lauderdale removed the more
ancient church from the vicinity of his residence; the
edifice, though cruciform, is not remarkable for elegance. The
most conspiucous object in and about Lauder is Thirlstane Castle,
a massive and spacious mansion, surrounded by a park and
some fine woods, and is the seat of the family of Lauderdale. The
castle Btauds between the Leader and the town, on a fine lawn, and
is fitted up in the best taste of the time of Charles II., and decorated
with massive balustrades and cornices, and a profusion of elaborately
carved marble chimney-pieces ; among the paintings, chiefly
portraits, are some rare and valuable productions. The fairs
formerly held here have been discontinued. The parish of
Lander contains about 84,898 acres, ami in 1881 had a population of
1,940, the parliamentary burgh at the same period having 964.
BLAINSLIE is a small rural village in the parish of Melrose
(Roxburghshire), situated at the extreme end of the parish, ahd about
seven miles from the town of Melrose. It lies on the old road from
Earlston to Lauder, four miles distant from the former place, and
two and a half from the latter, from wbonce its letters are delivered.
The parish of Channelkiuk, containing about 14,191 acres, is
situated among the Lammermoor hills, where they divide the
counties of Edinburgh and Haddington from Berwick. On the
banks of the rivulets which, united, form the river Leader, or
Lauder, aro about 3,000 acres in tillage; but the hills are mostly
covered with heath, and are very bleak and unproductive. Popu-
lation in 1881, G07.
The village of Ugston, now called Oxton, is abont four miles from
Lauder, on the south of the Edinburgh road, iu the Upper part of
the vale of the Leader. Oxton is now the only village in the parish
of ChanuelUirk, and in it the little business or trade that has exist-
ence throughout its entire extent is almost exclusively centred.
About a mile to the west of Oxton are the remains of the village of
CbannelkirU, from which the parish takes its name, the minister's
manse and church being all that remain of the village, which at one
time was a resting-place for travellers by the old Edinburgh road,
through the Lammermoors, to Lauderdale.

POLWAKTH AND FOGO.
POLWARTH is a parish of about 3,000 acres, in the district of j
Merse. The village, now almost decayed, is 40 miles s.e. from j
Edinburgh, 4 s.w. from Duns, and about S^-n.e. from Greenlaw, ]
situated on the road between the two last-named towns. It was I
formerly of much greater extent, and, from its connection with \
Scottish song, continues to the present day the most interesting i
locality in the district. On the green of Toiwarth, in the centre of j
the village, it was an ancient custom for every new married pair,
■with their company, to dance round an old thorn, the legend !
connected with which, according to Chambers, might furnish
materials for a good romance. The estate of Pol war th formerly
belonged to Sinclair of Hermandston, whose family, so far back as
the fifteenth century, terminated in co-heiresses. It appears that
the Misses Sinclair, of all their suitors — and they had many— pre-
ferred the sons of their powerful neighbour, Home, of Wedderburn.
and it so happened that the youngest sister was beloved by the
eldest nonio (George), whilst the eldest placed her affections on the !
youngest, whose name was Patrick. After the death of the father
of the young ladies they fell into the hands of an uncle, who, anxious i
to prevent their marriages, that he himself might become their heir, j
immured them in his castle, somewhere in Lothian. In this
dilemna the fair prisoners contrived to get a letter transmitted to [
their loverB by means of an old female beggar, and they ;were soon
gratified with the sight of the two youths accompanied by a deter- I
mined band of Merse men before the gate of their prison. The uncle i
made both remonstrance and resistance, bnt in vain ; his nieces were j
forcibly taken from him and carried off in triumph. Part of the i
nuptial rejoicing— for tho marriage ceremony immediately ensued— I
consisted in a merry dance round the thorn, which, even at that early
310.
period, grew in the centre of the village. The lands of Polwartb were
then divided between the two Homes, and while George carried on
the lino in tho Wedderborn family, Patrick was tho founder of the
branch afterwards ennobled by the title of Marchmont. In com-
memoration of this remarkable affair, for many years all future
marriage parties danced round t'-ie thorn, and a tune seems to have
been composed of the name " Polwartb on the Green," to which
songs have been successfully adapted. On the front of the parish
church, an ancient building, which i stands about a mile south-east
of the village, is a Latin inscription, importing that it was erected
anterior to the year 900. In the vault of this church Sir Patrick
Home, of Polworth, afterwards the first Earl of Marchmont, and
Lord Chancellor of Scotland, found an asylum from the fury of his
persecutors, when a price was set upon his head, till arrangements
were made for his escape to Holland, which was happily effected.
The noble mansion of the Into Earl rrf Marchmont, together with the
estate, is now the property of Sir H. H. Campbell, Bait. The late
Lady Campbell established the school for infants, which bears her
name. The parish of Polwartb in 1S81 had a population of 227.
The parish of Fogo, which lies to the south ol that of Polwartb, is
intersected and watered by the Blackadder, upon the right bank of
which stream, said to be so fatal to the salmon species, stands the
little village of Fogo; and about a mile lurther up the river is the
ancient diminutive hamlet of Chesters, occupying the site of a
Roman encampment. The parish is six miles in length, by between
three and fonr in breadth, and contains about 4,052 acres; the land
is chiefly arable and fertile. A neat church and Board school are
in the village. Population in 1881, 468.

SWINTON, WITH SIMPRIM,
THE parish of Swinton:, to which that
1761, is in the district of Merso, and contains: 5,561 acres. The
parish is intersected by the small river Leet, and near thereto is the
neat village of Swinton, lying about 45 miles b.b. of Edinburgh, 12
s.w. of Berwick, and 6 n. of Coldstream. The small village oi Sim-
prim is situated at the south-east corner of the parish. The estate
of Swinton has been for upwards of seven hundred and fifty \oars
the property of a family of that name, who originally acquired it as
a reward lor clearing the country of wild boars, or swine, whose
mischievous aud often ferocious depredations continually troubled
aud alarmed the inhabitants. The grant was afterwards confirmed
by the royal ordinance of Malcolm Canmore, for the exertions of the
Bwintons in reinstating hint on t'<e throne. The celebrated Rev.
Thoint'S Boston, author of the " Fourfold State," was lor some time
minister of Simprim, A handsome school was erected in 1877- at a
cost of .£2,000. In 1831 the united parishes had a population of 1)64,
the village of Swinton possessing -140 of this number
Whitsome, including the abrogated parish of Hilton, is about four
miles and a half long and two and a half broad, and contains 4,896
acres. The land is principally composed of a deep rich clay, but
there is some extent of mareh or oozy ground. The small village of
Wh:tsomo is nearly situated in the centre of tho parish, at the
WHITSOME, LADYKIRK AND HO END ALE.
Simprim was united in distance of about three miles from Swintou. Population in 1881
560.
The parish of Ladykirk lies on the north bank of the Tweed,
having the parish of Huttou on the north-east, and Whitsome aud
Swinton joining it on tho margin of the river, with a breadth of
from one to two miles, aud containing 8,380 acres. The old bridge
which spanued the Tweed bore has been superseded by a newandhand-
some one of stone, constructed at the expense of the Tweed Bridges
Trust. The church of Ladykirk, a venerable building, stands near
tho Tweed, about four miles from Swinton, and nine from Berwick.
Tradition ascribes its erection to the fourth .Tames, in gratitude for
his preservation from tho violence of the flood when fording the
river hero at the head of his army. Ho dedicated the edifico to
'■ Our Lady,*' hence denominated Ladykirk, which name was sub-
seqii' ntly exteuded to tho whole parish, previously designated
Upsctlington. An elegant but substantial fountain has receuLly been
given by Lady Marjoribanks, of Ladykirk, in commemoration of the
fiftieth year of her Majesty's reign. The Boil of the district ia
naturally good from its local situation ; cultivation has made it
rich and beautiful ; and the parish is celebrated for its breed of cattle
and sheep. The small village of Horndean belongs to thi« parish
An annual fair is held in Ladykirk on the 6th of April. Population
of the parish in 1881, 438.

BUTESHIRE.
fTlHE Islands of Bute, Arran, Great and Little Cumbray (or Cumbrae), Holy Isle, Tladda, and Incii-Marnoch, compose this
shire, which comprises 225 square miles of land, or 143,997 acres. In point of size it ranks as the- twenty-eighth, and in population
as the twenty-ninth of Scotch counties. Though far separated from the properly denominated Western Islands, those of Bute statisti-
cally constitute a portion of the Hebrides. The northern extremity of Bute projects into tho district of Cowal, Argyllshire ; and the
water division between tho island and the latter is often so slender that vessels find a difficulty in navigating the straits, which have
obtained tho title of tho w Kyles of Bute." The southern part forms the western shores of the Firth of Clyde. About the middle it is
narrowed by tho indention of bays on either side. The length of the island is about eighteen and its breadth averages live miles.
Towards Cowal it is bleak and monntaiuous, hut in the southern parts it consists of green fortilo eminences or low hills, either
affording excellent pasture, or capable of being cultivaied so as to produce fine crops of barley, oats, &c. The island altogether
is distinguished for picturesque beauty, and both the botanist and tho geologist will find it a rich field for their respective researches.
Tho antiquary, also, will discover many relics of bjgone days existing in the island among others, the interesting ruins of Rothesay,
East and West Karnes and Kilmory Castles. Here, as on all tho west coast of Scotland, there is little or no extent of sea beach, in com-
parison with other shores ; tho mariuo border is in most places rooty, with several good natural harbours. On tho south-eastern side
the island is clothed with line plantations, raised by tho taste of the late Marquis of Bute, and the family seat, Mount Stewart, an elegant
modern mansion, lies on the woody slope facing the entrance to the Clyde.
The Climate of Buteshire is eminently salubrious; neither mists nor noxious fogs, so prevalent in the east of Scotland, infest it ;
snow rarely lies on the hills, and the only qualification to its general genial character is a liability to severe and sudden rains. In the
interior, in a secluded situation, tho late celebrated tragedian, Edmund Kcau, erected a cottage, to which he purposed retiring from
public life. The view of tho island from the sea is enlivened by several other cottages on the different green declivities. Bute has for
many years been the place of summer resort, for sea-bathing and ruralizatiou, of tho fashionable mercantile gentry of the west, who
congregate chiefly in and about Rothesay, its capital, and contribute materially to the vivacity of the place.
The large island of Arran lies five miles south-west of Bute, and between the peninsulas of Cantyro and Ayrshire, iu form it
approaches an oval, extending from north to south twenty miles, and in breadth twelve. While Bute is mostly low and greon, Arran
is lofty and brown, with many heathy mountains, Borne of which exceed three thousand feet in altitude, A small portion of the lower
grounds are cultivated, but the whole is essentially and characteristically pastoral. There arc several remarkable caves; the most
distinguished is that on the west, opposite to Campbeltown, called " the King's Cave," from its liaviug afforded shelter to Robert Bruce
before he discomfited Baliol, and ascended the throne of Scotland; it is one hundred and twenty feet in length, sixty in height, aud
forty-eight in width. Arran belongs principally to tho Duke of Hamilton, who has on the island an ancient though somewhat modernised
seat, called Brodick Castlo ; it furnished the title of Earl to tho chief of the house of Hamilton, who was regent during the minority of
Mary Queen of Scots. The island comprehends two parishes, and its villages aro Lamlash and Brodick. It was formerly famous for
the excellence of its whisky; and coal, freestone, and ironstone are said to lie beneath tho surface of the soil. Tho beautiful little
island of Incii-Marnocii, rising a few miles south-west of Bute, is about a mile iu length; near its eastern shore are the ruins of a
chapel dedicatod to Saint Marnoch. Tho Cumbrays aro two small islands, lyiug in the Firth of Clyde, betwixt the Isle of Bute and
Ayrshire ; the greater Cumbray lies highest up the Firth, and is two mites and a half in length, by a breadth of one and a half, distant
from the coast of Ayrshire about two miles. The capital, and only town on the island, is Millport, a neat little place on the north side,
with a harbour. The island forms a parish, to which tho lessor Cumbray is attached ; this latter island is about a mile in length by
half a mile in breadth. Theso Cumbrays once beJonged to the Norwegians, aud were frequently the objects of contest with the Scots.
The whole of the larger Cumbray is now the property of tho Marquis of Bute. The Earl of Eglintoun is the owner of the lesser
Cumbray.
The island of Bute at one time contained ten or twelve parish churches, and about thirty hermitages of religious men; the island has
now but three parishes, and the shire altogether only seven. The only royal burgh is Rothesay ; the county is represented in Parlia-
ment by one member, the present representative being James P, B. Robertson, Esq., q.c. Bute gives the title of Marquis to the family
of Stuart, a branch of the royal family of Scotland. The Marquis of Bute is descended in a direct line from Sir John Stuart, a son of
Robert II., who by his father's grant became possessed of the islaud of Bute, with the heritable jurisdiction of tho county, in which he
was confirmed by a charter of his brother, Robert III. The family was elevated to an earldom iu the person of Sir James, a privy coun-
cillor of Queen Anne, in 1703. Tho lord lieutenant of the county is Lieut.-Colouel J. F. D. Crichton-Stuart. The parliamentary
constituency for 1S37-88 was 2,967. According to the returns presented to Government in 1871, the population of the shire was 16,997,
and by those for 1381, 17,657. The valuation of tho county for 1887-88, exclusive of the burgh of Rothesay, was £63,864.

THE ISLE OF ARRAN,
INCLUDING THE PARISHES OF KILBRIDE AND KILMORY, AND THE VILLAGES OF BRODICK AND LAMLASH,
WITH THEIR VICINITIES.
THE ISLE OF ARRAN has been partially described under the
the head of Buteshire, to which county it belongs. It is divided
into two parishes, Kilbride and Kn.moitv. Kilbride parish' occupies
about one half of the island, ou the east side, extending 25 miles in
length, by a breadth of from four to six. This parish, and others of
the same name, are said to have derived their designation from Saint
Bride or Bridget; and the fame of ihis sainted female seems to have
been extended over the whole of Britain. The ruins of the old
church of Kilbride are still remaining. The present edifice, which
is situated in Lamlash:, was erected in 177*1 ; a new one was in 1885
built at the cost of the Duke of Hamilton. The anchorage in Lamlash
Bay is reckoned tho best in the west of Scotland, affording perfect
security to vessels driven by stress of weather from tho Irish
Channel. The haven forms a natural basin, with the high protecting
rocky islet of Holy Island lying at its mouth. On the inner side of
the bay, is the village, where there is a good inn, called the Lamlash
Hotel. In this parish are some tall obelisks, which am supposed to
be fragments of Druidical circles, or places of worship. Brodick
Castle, the seat of the Duke of Hamilton, is placed on a rocky bank,
which rises from the north side of the Bay of Brodick. The hank
forms part of a peninsular elevation or shoulder, projecting from
the baso of Goatfell mountain, which "ininence rises nearly 3,000
feet above the level of the sea, and overlooks the three kingdoms.
Brodick village coutains a very handsome and commodious family
hotel, erected by the Dnke of Hamilton, facing the new pier, enclosed
in spacious grounds, and a splendid view may be obtained from the
various apartments of this hotel, including Brodick Bay, Goatfell
mountain, and Glenrosa, together with the coast of Ayrshire
and Argyleshire. Tho Duke of Hamilton is superior of the
island. The Isle of Arran, which embraces an area of 105,436 statute
acres, contained in 1871 a population of 5,284, and in 1881,4.702.
The parish of Kilmory (Kil-a-MJioire, or St. Mary's burying place)
occupies fully more than half the islaud of Arran, on its western
Bide, and the kirk of Kilmory, which a few years ago was stripped
and rebuilt by His Grace the Duke of Hamilton, at a cost of £1,800,
is situate on the southern extremity. '*For fertility of soil," as a
recent writer remarks, " Kilmory is truly like the Garden of Eden.
In the neighbourhood of Lagg Hotel or of the parish church, the
district is ene of tho finest and richest a gracious Providence hath
bestowed ou man. Dairy produce is abundant, and fair crops are
obtained from largo fields well laid out with good fences. The hills are
of moderate height, and so accessible to culture that every spot is
convertible to use.'' The island is noted for its situation as a her-
ring fishery, but this is pursued by only a comparatively small portiou
of the inhabitants, chiefly at the uorth end. The staple industry of
the island is agriculture, which, under the fostering care of the Arran

, &c.,is attaining to a degree of excellance which will compare favour-
\ ably with some of the best cultivated districts on the mainland.
i The majority of the inhabitants are occupiers of small plcts of land,
I but a considerable moiety occupy holdings rented at from about
i .£100 £800. The smaller tenants taking advantage of the influx of
summer visitors find bouse letting a ready source of providing addi-
tioual winter comforts, and even those who by industry and thrift
have managed to lay up a decent competence, uo not hesitate to
| extemporise for dwellings every available onthouse,iu order to place
[ the ordinayr house accommodation at the disposal of the incomers.
As a summer resort the island is held in high reputation, as, besides
possessing a climate highly salubrious — the longevity of the people
being remarkable — it presents ample opportunities for boating, sea
and trout fishing, botanical aud geological researches, aud kindred
outdoo pursuits. All the streams, many of which afford tolerably
good sport to the careful angler, are free to all comers, except two
iu the neighbourhood of Dugarie Shooting Lodge. Game is abundant,
as it is also scrupulously preserved by His Grace the Duke of
Hamilton, who, however, places no restriction on the peregrinations
of excursionists, prosecution for trespass being unknown on the
island. A good road runs along the shore for tho whole circuit of
tho island, a distance of 60 miles, while two roads cut across from
shore to shore — one from Lagg to Lamlash, aud the other from
Shiskine to Brodick. Following the road along tho shore, 25
miles of the distance traversed are within tho limits of Kilbride
parish, and the remaining 35 miles within Kilmory parish.
Till tho last twenty or thirty years scarcely any part Of Arran, beyond
the Brodick district — always rich in woodland— could boast of
trees ; now, however, by tho exertions of the Duke of Hamilton's
foresters, plantations of considerable extent and growth form a
special feature of attraction in various localities, the beautiful and
wooded glen of Lagg, in Kilmory parish, and other sequestered
spots, presenting a combination of scenery which never fails to
"satisfy the eye and make the mind glad.'' The island is copiously
watered by the numerous streams issuing on either side from the
" great backbone of mountain lock," extending from north to south.
Its natural beauties have again and again formed the subject for
the artists' pencil and the poets' theme, mountain, rock, and glen,
and deep ravine, and gushing stream, appearing iu panoramic suc-
cession, form a pleasing background to the belt of green pasture
slopes and cultivated land, which, for the most part, fringe the
seaboard of the island. Fairs are held at Brodick on the first
Tuesday after the 20th of June, aud at Lamlash in the months of
April aud October. Population of the parish of Kilmory iu 1871,
2,879; and of the parish of Kilbride, 2,881) ; iu 1881 Kilmory had a
population of 2,742, and Kilbride, 2,020.

MILLPORT (Isle of Cumbeay.)
THE Isles of Cttjibray (or Cumbrae), have been already noticed
on a preceding page, in tbo description of Buteshire. Millport
is a burgn, constituted 1861, under the Act 23 and 21 Vie,, cap. 96,
and is governed by commissioners and a senior and two junior
magistrates. It is chiefly resorted to for sea bathing, being charm-
ingly situated on the south side of tho greater Cumbray, about four
miles from Largs, in Ayrshire, between which town, as well as
Greenock and Glasgow, communication is maintained by means of
a regular service of steam?rs. The excellent harbour and pier
here present perfect convenience for the landing or embarkation of
passenger*. Ninety years ago this place possessed only oue dwelling,
the hut of a fisherman. The number of inhabitants in the two
Cumbrays amounts at the present time to about eighteen hundred
and seventy, of whom a considerable proportion are resident in
Millport; aud in the summer months, from the influx of visitors, a
life and bustle is exhibited which forms an agreeable contrast to the
quietude prevailing in other parts of the Isles. The village is gas-
lighted, a parochial board exists, a sheriff aud small debts court is
held in March and September, aud a bowling green, splendid Rolling
links, and choral society aro established. Pleasantly situated on
tbe shore is a beautiful marine pavilion, in tho pointed style of
architecture, belonging to the Marquis of Bute, who is now owner of
the whole of the larger Cumbray. The principal object of attraction
is the Episcopal College aud Church, a beautiful Gothic erection,
situated on an eminence overlooking the town and bay, founded
and endowed by the Hon. George F. Boyle, aud opened in 1850-51.
Both aro now, however, closed. The places of worship are a church
of the Establishment, a plain edifice, with a handsome quadrangular
tower; an Episcopal church, a Free church, United Presbyterian
church, and a Baptist cbapel. The schools, two in number, are well
attended. The iuhabitauts of these isles are a class remarkable for
their industrious habits— chiefly fishermen and owners of their own
boats. Some parts of the greater Cumbray are well cultivated
producing good wheat, and here aud there may he seen some thriv-
ing plantations. On the western side of tho lesser Cumbray is a
lighthouse. This isle is the property of the Earl of Eglintou.

ROTHESAY,
KAHESBUKGH (OE POET BANNATYNE), ASCOG, KILCHATTAN, KINGAETH, KEERTCEOY, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
Ti OTHESAY is a royal burgh, a town of grout antiquity, and tlio
Jit capital of its parish, 00 miles w. from Edinburgh (by Mid-
Colder), iO s.w. from Glasgow, 18 s.w. from Greenock, 22 n. from
Lamlash, in the Isle of Arritu, 12 n.w. from Cumbrav, and 0 N.w.
from Largs; finely situated at the head of a hay, called Rothesay,
on the east side of the island of Bute, of which it is tho capital, as
well as of the shire. The origin of Rothesay was its eastle, whose
ruins yet oxist, and tho following are considered as some of the most
remarkable particulars respecting it. Tho first mention of it in
history is iu|1228. when it was boBiegod by Hushac, tho Norwegian,
in conjunction with Olave, King of Man, ami taken after a stout
resistance. Having been recovered from the northern invaders, it
was again taken by them about the vear 1253, and retaken bv the
Scots shortly after the battle of Largs." It was seized by tho English
during the reigu of John Baliol, but in 1811 it surrendered to Robert
Brace. In 1834, Edward Baliol retook the caslle, and fortified it ; it
soon afterwards, however, submitted to Bruce, the steward of Scot-
land. Kmg Robert II. visited this castle in 1:376, in 1381, and in 1892,
ana subsequently created his eldest son, Prince David, Dnko of
Rothesay, which has over siuco been the principal Scottish title of
the heir apparent. Additional facts are given in Mr. W. A. Wilson's
admirable " Guide to Rothesay," to which wo refer our readers.
J. tie herring fishery, which has long been active here, caused a
great revival in Rothesay, and stimulated the restoration of decayod
buildings, and the erection of new ones. Fisli curing is still carried
on, hut not to the same extent as formerly. There is a factory where
cotton spinning and the manufacture of muslin is carried on. Three
branch banks and one for savings, and several comfortable hotels
are in the town, the Bute Hotel, at tho head of the pier, the
y*1™8 Hotel, m Argyle street, the Royal Hotel, in Albert place,
aud the Victoria, lu Victoria street, being the principal; they aro all
conducted in a, manner satisfactory to then- numerous visitants,
me lodging bouses are very numerous, and upon every
scale. Five newspapers are published here— the Buteman, the
Rothesay chromele, Rothesay Express, West Coast Journal, and the
KMitora .List, the latter being issued during the season only.
About a mile to tho east of the town was a salutary mineral spring,
now closed; near this is Glenburn House Hydropathic Establish.
■■m-ui. ^Ihe bay is very spacious, and the anchorage ground
"■ >".i: .una was a salutary mineral spnug,
now closed; near this is Glenburn House Hydropathic Establish-
ment, lne bay is very spacious, and the anchorage ground
excellent. A pier, erected in 1882, has siuce been enlarged, an d h
harbour much improved and deepened, at a very considerable
?3? fe" t? N°rman Stewart Institute was opened on 4th July,
1885, by Provost Sharp The Working Men's Club, Bute Women's
Temperance Prayer Union, Rothesay Young Women's Christian
Association, and other similar organisations have the most sumptu-
ous accommodation provided for them in this noble institute, which
has been erected in Montague street, at a cost of £10,000, partly by
funds bequeathed by the late Mr. Norman Stewart of Richmond,
Virginia but mainly by his nephews, Messrs. John, Daniel, and
Bryce Stewart of America, natives of Rothesay. There is a large
and handsome refreshment room on the ground floor, and on the
other floors there are amply supplied reading and waitiug rooms,
billiard room, and recreation and smoking rooms.
The site of a battery which was erected early in the present
century, when Napoleon threatened to invade Britain, on a point
adjoining Mount Stuart road, on the shore of tlu east bay, is now
occupied by the Rothesay Royal Aquarium. In front of "the east
pier, an elegant fountain has been erected, as a memorial of the late
Prince Consort, and another neat fountain is erected in Guildford
square. The Town Hall and County Buildings were rebuilt at an
expense of upwards of £9,000, raised by assessments on the county
aud burgh, and by subscriptions. They form a handsome pile, anil
are ornamented with an elegant castellated tower, containing a bell
and beautiful clock, having four transparent dials, which at night are
I illuminated; the clock was the gift of the late Marquis of Bute.
i The edifice comprises a spacious court room, in which the sheriff,
burgh, and justice of peace courts are held, and the town and
sheriff clerks' and procurator fiscal's offices, with other requisite
apartments. At the east end of the court house is a painting of the
lute Lord Bute, by Mr. Graham Gilbert. Beneath the court room is
tho prison, which was enlarged in 1870, but is now closed. The new
public hulls are a pile of buildings facing Prince's pier, and are used
for concerts, lectures, public meetings, &c. seating upwards of 1,950
persons. There aro several good schools and academies in the
town ; amongst the latter is the Rothesay Academy and tho
Thomson Institute, which was erected and partially endowed by
the trustees of the late Duncan Thomson, Esq. Ardueg, Bute. It
provides a course of classical ami general education, suited to the
demand of the present time. The building is a noble pile in the
Gothic style of architecture, and occupies a commanding situ on tho
rising ground of the west bay in the middle ofa park kindly pre-
sented by the present Marquis of Bute. The Academy has been
transferred to the School Board of the burgh.
Rothesay was erected into a royal burgh by Robert III.,
under charter dated 12th January, 1400; and its privileges were
confirmed and extended by James VI. in 1584. Tho government of
the town is vested iu a provost, three bailies, a dean of guild, the
town treasurer, and twelve councillors. The sheriff and commissary
courts are held every Tuesday and Thursday; a justice of peace
court for the recovery of small debt3 sits on the first Monday in
every month. The quarter sessions are held ou the first Tuesdays
iu the months of March, May, aud August, and the last Tuesday iu
October, and all criminal cases for the circuit court justiciary are
tried at Inverary. The list of places of worship will be found at the
end of the Directory of the town. Iu the neighbourhood
of this respectable town aro many mansions of the nobdity
and gentry. About 5 miles s.k. is Mount Stuart, tlie
beautiful and romantic seat of the Marquis of Bute. About 2 miles
s.w., aud at the end of the Chapelton road, is Woodend, or (as it is
more generally denominated) " Keau's Cottage," from having been
built by that eminent tragedian ; the house stands in a sweet
retired spot, a little above the western shore of Loch Fad, whose
waters are usefully employed in propelling the machinery of various
emills. The climate of Bute beiug very salutary, from its mildness,
to those afflicted with pulmonary complaints, tho faculty recommend
numerous patients to the balmy influence ol Rothesay. The parish
of Rothesay extends over an area of 6,083 statute acres, and in 1881
contained a population of 8,588, of which 8,291 belonged to tho
burgh.
KAMESEimuHor Port Bannatyne (the latter being better known),
is situated 2% miles N. from Rothesay, and is a fish-curing station.
This branch of industry is, however, not prosecuted extensively at
the present time. The port possesses a small quay and a substantial
pier, and there are several well-furnished houses, the latter occupied
principally by the families who make this pleasant village a summer
retreat. Half a mile distant is the ancient Castle of Karnes, the
property of the Marquis of Bute. Nearly a mile to the west is the
church of North Bute, erected in 1836 at an expense of .£1,000/
defrayed by the late Marquis of Bute ; and in the village is the Frfe
church, erected in 1843. St. Ninian's Chapel of Ease, in connection
with the Established Chnrch, was opened in July, 1886, the cost ol
erection being about £5,000. Population of North Bute parish in
1881, 1,218.
Ascoo. about 3 miles s.e. from Rothesay, is Bituated on a lovely
bay. There are many elegant mansions and villas here, and on a
point of rook jutting out into the water is a neat Free church, in the
grounds of which, to the east, rest the remaius of the famous
painter, Montague Stanley, At the extreme south end of the island,

above Dannagoil Bay, there stands an extensive vitrilieii fort, and on
the summit of a gentle eminence, called Chapel hill, rising above
Argyle street, were the remains of the ancient euapel of St. Bride,
removed when improving the hill. The Bute Farmers' Society has
done much for the agriculture and farm stock of the island, pre-
miums and prizes for which are awarded at the annual show, which
is held iu Rothesay, in May. A nominal weekly market is held on
Wednesday, and fairs on the first Wednesday in May, third Wednes-
day and the following Thursday in July, the last Wednesday in
October, and Tuesday beforo Kilbarchan December fair — all
chiefly for cattle.
Four miles s.E. from Rothesay is Kerrycroy hamlet, pleasantly
situated on Scoulag Bay, the village forming a crescent rouud the
strand. The entrance to Mount Stuai t policies commences here, and
between the village and Ascog is a Board school.
Kilchattan village, about 8 miles s. of Rothesay, is beautifully
Bituated on a hay of the same name. Within a short distance is the
parish church of Kingarth, an elegant modern edilice, and in the
village are a Free church and school. Half a mile from the east
shore are the remains of a Druidical circle, and towards the west
shore, and also near the north-east shore of the bay, are several other
interesting Druidical remains. In the neighbourhood of Kilchattan
is the curious promontory of Garrochhead ; about a mile to the
south of this, in a quiet romantic dell, staud the remains of the
church or chapel of St. Blane, and ahonta mile south-west from St.
Blaue's chapel is the vitrified fort of Dunuagoil. The area of the
parish of Kingarth is 8,995 statute acres, and in 1881 its population
numbered 1,2(10.

CAITHNESS-SHIRE.
fTIHIS is the most northerly county of Great Britain, lying on the north-eastern extremity of Scotland. It is bounded by the German
Ocean on the east, by Sntherlandshire on the south and south-west, and the Pontland Frith on the north separates the mainland
from the Orkney Islands. In figure the county approaches to that of a triangle, and is nearly forty miles in length, and about thirty in
breadth at the middle ; altogether it comprehends an area of 712 square miles, or 448,068 acres. This county in point of size ranks as
the thirteenth, and in population as the twenty-first.
The Early History of this county is of little or no interest, owing to its distance from the central part of the kingdom. It waa
anciently inhabited by the Catinii, from whom the present apellation is supposed to be derived. The names of various places and the
monumental remains indicate its having been the theatre of numerous petty exploits of the Danes and Norwegians. The ruins of Castle
Sinclair and Girnigo, the remains of old chapels, and other relics of antiquity combine to prove tbat this district was inhabited at
an early date. Caithness is an earldom in the family of Sinclair. This peerage is of remote antiquity ; before the year 1460 it was
enjoyed by three successive families, who lost it either by forfeiture or extinction. At length it was renewed in the person of William
Sinclair, Earl of Orkney, a great-grandson, by the female line of Robert II. ; he was made Chancellor of Scotland in the reign of James
II., and received a grant of the earldom of Caithness. The earldom of Orkney having been derived from the King of Norway, though
confirmed by a Scottish monarch, was resigned to the crown in the reign of James III. After a long period the title was revived, but
not in the family of the Sinclairs of Caithness.
Soil, Surface, Produce, Climate, <£c. — The county is in general level, with a few mountains on the borders of Sntherlandshire,
and some eminences of trifling altitude throughout. The soil is chiefly devoted to tillage, and in the centre and along the sea border is
moderately fertile. This district is nearly destitute of wood, and the few enclosures are but of a rude quality. The greatest elevations
in this county above the level of the sea are, Maiden's Paps, 2,000 ft. ; Scarry Hills, 1,876 ft ; and Ord of Caithness, 1,250 ft. Although
improvements have certainly been effected, much remains to be done to raise the condition of CaithnesB-shire to that of the adjacent
couuties. Since the year 1809 a better system of farming has been introduced, and the number of roadB throughout the country haB
been augmented. Though black cattle form an article of consideration, this is rather an agricultural than a grazing county; clover
and turnips are pretty broadly cultivated, and the crops of grain* are mostly limited to oats and beans, both of good quality. Besides
cattle and corn, kelp, salmon, cod, herrings, bacon, with some butter and cheese, and a considerable quantity of wool, comprise the
articles of exportation ; the imports being foreign timber, coal, salt, flour and general merchandise. | The mountains abound with
red deer and various kinds of game, and the district throughout with hares, rabbits, grouse, plovers, &c. In the caverns along the coast
seals form their harbours the hunters enter in small boats, with torches, and with loud shouts alarm the animals, which they kill
with clubs as they attempt to pass into the sea. This county has no coal, and the principal fuel of the inhabitants is peat. The chief
mineral production is flagstones, used for flooring, pavement, &c, these stones being well known for their durability; and in the
quarrying and dressing of which many men are employed. Ironstone and freestone of excellent quality are also found; The white
and herring fishery is prosecuted with success, and the curing of fish is another branch of trade in which many persons are engaged.
The Climate, though by no means genial and mild, is temperate, considering its high latitude (fifty-ninth degree}, where the duration
of the night at one period of the year is nineteen hours.
Rivers, Lakes, Railways, &c.— In the interior thero are upwards of thirty small fresh water lakes, from which flow a number of
streamlets and somo waters of greater magnitude ; the principal among the latter are Forss and Thurso rivers on the north-west, and
Wick and Berrydale on the south-east. The most extensive loch is the Watten, a fine sheet of water, about three miles in length,
from which issues a branch of the river Wick. The only bays of note aro Sinclair Bay, on the north-east, and Cannes Bay on the
north. Tho county is greatly benefited by means of the Highland Railway, the towns of Wick, Thurso, &c, now being placed in'
direct communication with all parts of the country.
Divisions, Representation, &c— CaithnesB-shire was anciently a bishopric, the earliest traces of which refer its origin to
the twelfth century ; at present it contains ten parishes, which constitute a presbytery. The shire contains one royal burgh—Wick,
and a burgh of barony— Thurso. The county sends one member to Parliament, and Wick joined with Kirkwall, Dornoch, Dingwall,
Tain and Cromarty, elects another representative. The present member for the county is Gavin Brown Clark, Esq., m.d. The
parliamentary constituency for 1887-88 was 8,878. The Eaii of Caithness is lord lieutenant of the county. By the census
returns for 1871, the entire county contained a population of S9,992, and by those for 1881, 88,865. The valuation of the county for
1887-88, inclusive of railways, was £138,045.

CAITHNESS-SHIRE
SLATER'S
LYBSTER IN LATHERON,
DUNBEATH, BERRIEDALE, BRUAN, SWINEY, TORBEG, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
LYBSTER is a village in the parish of Latheron, 13 miles a. from
Wick, and 25 n. from Helmsdale, situated on tho Bouth-east
side of the county. The parish extends from the Ord of Caithness 27
miles along the coast, by a breadth of from 13 to 15 miles. Tho
houses are substantially built and regularly laid out, and in the
subnrbB are some which are entitled to come under the description
of neat and handsome residences. No port from Cromarty to the
Orkney Isles has greater claims on the attention of the mariner, nor
has any been more successfully or beneficially employed for the
purpose of the herring fishery. From th^ indentation of its coast,
with bold headlands at either side, which throw off the sweeping
currents so general on the Caithness shores, there is comparatively
still water at the entrance, and perfect security withiu the harbour.
The " Brothers Port," the name bequeathed to this haven by the
Scandinavians, wbo settled in Caithness in the eighth and tenth
centuries, appears to have been much resorted to by these " sea-
lungs," or pirates ; but it was subsequently destroyed by a devas-
tating land-flood, which choked up the small river that flowed
into it with trees, earth, moss and stone; and thus converted
into a solid beach and corn-field what theretofore was capable of
affording shelter and safety to the largest ships of tho present day.
However, from tho progress already made in clearing out this
obstruction, there can be no doubt that, at au incredibly small
expense, tho importance of this valuable harbour may he increased
even beyond its ancient reputation. A proof of "the disastrous
occurrence just related is furnished by the fact that, but an incon-
siderable time since, mooring ringbolts wore to be Been at a rock
three hundred yards from the present high water mark. Upon a
contiguous eminence the ruins of a Roman Catholic chapel, and
some well-curved relics in Morayshire freestone, still survive tho
lapse of time. A good road intersects the parish along tho shore,
and on this road are some pretty cottages. A church of the
Establishment and a Free chnrch are tho places of worship,
and with those are connected schools. Latheron kirk stands
half way on the coast near to a road that crosses tho
country to Thurso. Dunbeath, Berriedale, Buuan, Swiney,
and Torbeo are also villages in Latheron parish. A cattle
fair is held at Lybster on the secoud Tuesday in November, and a
sort of market for engaging men for the arduous employment of the
fishing season takes place on the 20th July. The parish of Latheron
embraces 119,539 acres, and had in 18S1 a population of 6,G70 ; of this
number bSl were returned for tho village of Lybster.

CAITHNESS-SHIRE
THURSO,
/
CASTLETOWN IN OLRIG, REAY, HALKIRK AND DUNNET.
THURSO is a town and burgh of barony, in tho parish of its
name, nearly 290 miles N.from Edinburgh, 20^ n.w. from Wick,
tbe same distance w. from John o'Groats, 46 e. from Tongue, and
1)6 from Bonar Bridge, by the way of Tongue, and the western road.
Thurso is situated on the north-west coast of the counLy, at the
head of a spacious bay, surrounded by a rocky coast ; and its head-
lands forming a bow, reDder it one of the finest hays in tbe kingdom.
Here tbe turbulent waves of the Pentland Firth and the powerful
currents find resistance in the oast by Dunnet Head, which stretches
out its rocky promontory with it precipitous front, whilst the
furious winds from the west are checked in their wild career by
tho Holbum Head. The original name of Thurso, and what it is
still called in the Gaelic language, is " Invcrhorsa ;" inver signify-
ing the mouth of a river. It is said, and with probability, that the
name is derived from Horsa, a Saxon general, who landed in the
fifth century. Tbe Danes were the earliest possessors of Caithness.
Torfoeus, tbe Danish historian, mentions that in the beginning of
tho eleventh century, Count Moddan quartered his army at
Thurso, which he terms " The Town of Caithness," and that they
were plentifully supplied with spoil from the neighbourhood, till
subdued by Thorkel. He adds that Moddan had his camp on the
promontory of Thurso, where vestige6ofa wall, which fortified it,
may Btill be perceived. Dr. Barry states that Earl Erland,t
in tbe time of Malcolm II., King of Scotland, about tho year 1005
resided for tho most part at Thurso. Buchanan mentions many
battles between Malcolm andthe Danes in Moray, which in thodo
times comprehended Caithness and all the northern counties of
Scotland. We find, by one of the statutes of King David of
Scotland, that tho weights and measures of Caithness, or Thurso,
were tho standard for Scotland. Vessels oE any burthen may find
shelter in the bay in any weather, and few places possess superior
advantages for refuge to the mariner than Scrabster Roads, as it
is called. A promenade lias been constructed facing tho sea,
at the expense of the inhabitants of the town ; it is upwards
of 300 yards iu length. The town, which is situated on tho left
bank of the river, is neat, clean, aud rapidly increasing in size.
There is a line of railway iu connection with tho Sutherland aud
Highland Railway, wbicli affords direct communication between
Wick, Thurso and the South. Tho walks in the neiehbourhood of
the town arc romantic, and some approach close to tho edge of the
precipitous clitl's ovorhanging tho sea. Tho river, too, is beautiful,
and famed for the almost miraculous draughts of salmon occasion-
ally taken. Either hank is connected by an elegant stone bridge,
but the want of a better pier is much felt, as vessels intending to
enter must wait the tide before they cau cross tho bar. This is a
great inconvenience to tho main export of the place, which consists
of ''Caithness pavement," an article in great demand, the
manufacture of which is carried on to a prodigious extent, and
involves the prosperity of the place. Tho peculiar excellence be-
louging to this staple is its durability, its resistance to moisture, and
its retention of an unbroken surface. Specimens may be seen in tbe
houses of Parliament, London, and many public buildings through-
out the United Kingdom. Nowhere in Scotland has agricultural
progress been so rapid as in Caithness. The industry ami energy
of the farmer generally rise in proportion to the obstacles which
nature presents. Immense tracts of heath land, which would have
been lelt uncultivated in the fertile Lowlands, have been subjected
to the plough, whilst many thousands of acres of bog and swamp
have beeu drained. The monetary establishments are branches of
tho Bunk of Scotland, the National Bank of Scotland, Limited, the
Commercial Bank, Limited, tho Tow ft and County Bank, Limited,
tho British Linen Co. Bank, and a Savings Bank. Thurso is a burgh
of barony, holden of Sir John George Tollemache Sinclair, Bart., as
superior.
The places of worship are the parish church, two Free churches,
and chapels for the Original Seueders and Independents, aud an
Episcopal church. Tho church of the Establishment is a neat
Gothic structure, with a tower and clock— the latter presented by
the late Henry Miller, Esq., of London, but a native of Thurso. The
first Free church is conspicuous for its elegance of architecture.
There are public aud Free Church schools, well conducted and at-
tended. At the top of Sinclair street is an institution endowed by
Alexander Miller, Esq., and erected for tho purpose of affording
education to boys. A hospital has been erected at a cost of abour.
£6,000, the money for which was left by the late Mr. Dunbar, of
Scrabster, and was opened for admission of patients in May, 1885.
The building is a very handsome one; tbe foundation stone was
laid by H.li.H. the Duke of Edinburgh, in 1831. A little to tho
east of the town stunds Thurso Castle, the s^at of Sir John George
Tollemache Sinclair, Bart., which within the last few years has been
greatly enlarged and modernised. Thurso parish gave birth to
Richard Oswald, Esq., one of tho plenipotentiaries from the court
of St. James for settling the peace of 1783. It is also the birth-
place of the late Sir John Sinclair, Bart., of Ulbster, whose name is
associated with the Statistical Account of Scotland, which was col-
lected and published in consequence of his indefatigable exertions,
and to whoso memory a very elegant monument of freestone has
been erected on a square piece of ground fronting the Established
church; it was presented to the town by Alexander Miller, Esq.
The late Robert Dick, an eminent botanist and geologist, was a
resident of this town, and his collection of specimens now forms an
important part of tho Thurso Museum. The weekly market is held
on Friday, and tbe annual fairs on tbe second Tuesday in Jnly and
first Friday in September. By the returns made to Government in
1871, tbe parish of Thurso, the area of which is 28,049 acres, had a
population of 5,754, the town containing 8,624; in 1881 the numbers
returned were : for the parish, 6,217 ; for the town, 4,055.
Rbay is a parish about 10 miles w. of Thurso. The Sutherland
section of Reay is somewhat wild and hilly, the highest mountains
being Beu Roadh and BenDorrery. The parish i8 about 20 miles
long, with a breadth of 12 miles, and comprehends an area of 115,301
acres. There is lime, granite, millstone, with traces of lead aud
iron, mineral springs, &c. There are Established and Free churches
and schools in the parish. Fairs are held on the Monday before
and Tuesday after August 15th. Population of the parish in 1881,
2,191.
Castletown is a small neat village, in the parish of Olrig, situated
rather more than 15 miles n.w. of Wick, and nearly six e. of Thurso.
In the immediate vicinity of tho village is the estate of Castlehill,
from which is quarried an excellent kind of stone, adapted to the
purposes of flooring aud flagging footways, &c. It lies in beds of
from three-quarters of an inch to six inches in thickness. Blocks
have often been raised measuring 100 superficial feet ; hence they
are carried to tho shore, where they are prepared and dressed,
previous to shipping, to facilitate which a small and convenient
harbour has been formed. Iu 1881 the parish of Olrig had a popula-
tion of 2,002, Castletown having 932 of that number.
Dunnet, a parish of 16,844 acres, 3 miles n.e. from Castletown,
and about 10 miles long by 4 wide, is the most northern part of Scot-
laud. Dunnet Head is a rock from 100 to 400 feet high, upon which
is a light at an altitude of 316 feet, first lighted iu 1831, and which is
seen by the mariner for 23 miles. There are Established and Free
churches, together with schools. Fairs are held on the first Tuesday
in April and last Tnesday iu August for cattle, horses, and pigs.
Population in 1381, 1.607.
Halkirk is a pariah 7 miles s. of Thurso, about 24 miles in length,
by a breadth of about 8, and comprises 95,763 acres. It contains
about 24 small lakes, abounding with trout, &c. There are Estab-
lished and Free churches, and public schools. Many ruins may be
seen in this parish. The main line of the Sutherland and Caithness
Railway passes through, and has a station here. Population in
1881, 2,705.

WICK,
LOUISBURGH, PULTENEYTOWN, WATTEN, BOWER, CANISBAY AND KEISS.
WICK is a parish and royal burgh ; the town, a considerable one,
improving and nourishing, is il'JO miles n. from Edinburgh, 61
n. by e. from Dornoch, and 20 s.w. from Thurso; situated on the
north-east coast o[ Caithness, forming the segment of a circle
around the bay of Wick, and along the banks of the river Wick,
where it enters the German Ocean. The town is divide! into three
ports, viz., Pulteneytown, Louisburgh and Wick. Tho old town ,
or rather Wick proper, is composed of the Hi^-h street and Bridge
street; the former runs from the hay along the curvature of the
river, and is flanked on either side by several lanes. Bridge street,
more regular in its construction, is ornamented by several elegant
erections, among which the town and county buildings form a neat
and handsome pile, faced with freestone, and surmounted by a
cupola with a public clock. The Town Hall has a spacious apart-
ment, containing portraits of the late eminent Sir John Sinclair,
and other local celebrities, and which is used as a council room, and
for the meetings of the Commissioners of Supolv for tlie county;
also the town clerk's and other offices. Within the last few years
the aspect of Bridge street has entirely changed, many new build-
ings, all having architectural features, more or less pretentions,
having taken the place of the old houses. The Town and County
Bank, Limited, the County Court House, the Station Hotel, Wick
Free church, and Brim's andGunn's buildings make up a total which
would not he discreditable to a much larger town. Elegaut premises
have also recently been erected in High street for the North of Scot-
land Bank, Limited. The Temperance Hall, seated for 1,200 people,
is the chief place in which public meetings and entertainments are
held. Staxigoe, Broadhaven, Keiss and Sarclet are suburban
villages, populated principally by fishermen, having each a separate
harbour. , The harbour of Sarclet is now a total wreck, with
little prospect of being rebuilt.
PulTkneytown, which may be reckoned the seat of the manufac-
tures, commerce and fisheries of Wick, was purchased when a mere
waste by the society in Loudon formed for extending British
fisheries, and various means havo been adopted to carry out tho
great and beneficial objects of the society. The local business of
the society is managed by an agent, whose residence overlooks the
harbours, and who is cx-officio chairman of the Pulteneytown Im-
provement Commissioners, who, under a special Act of Parliament,
have the oversight of lighting and cleansing the town, for which au
assessment is imposed. The feus and rental of Pulteueytown go
into the revenue of the British Fisheries Society. The port of Wick
consists of two harbours of fair dimensions, which are now being
greatly improved by deepening, so that the fishing fleet can enter »t
M states of the tide. A new breakwater was constructed at
a cost of about £120,000, but this magnificent erection is now
no longer to be Been, having been demolished by the fearful
a tonus which sweep across tUe North Sea from the north'*
21^-S-A-^
east, and spend their forco upon the Caithness coast.
Owing to the excessively perilous nature of the east coast fishing
ground, a deep sea harbour is imperatively needed here to prevent
the frequently recurring disasters which take place along the coast.
The harbours, which were formerly under the caro of the British
Fisheries Society, were about eight years ago handed over to the
Pulteneytown Harbour Trust, by special Act of Parliament. While
tho royal burgh of Wick can trace its history back for centuries,
Pulteneytown can only speak of its generations, and so much more
fortunate is it in this respect, that while Wick and Louisburgh
consist chiefly of closes and lanes, Pulteneytown has been from the
first laid out on a settled plan. Its regular streets, squares and ter-
races compare favourably with that of any northern town. Here
most of the work of the town is done. Its cooperages, flour mills,
net, rope and woollen manufactories, saw mills and distillery,
employ two-thirds of the whole population. On the Wick side of
the liver is Messrs. Alexander M'Eweu & Son's Caithness steam saw
mills ami cabinet works, and in Pulteneytown are the respective
establishments of Messrs. W. & A. Geddes and Mr. David Suther-
land, who are engaged in the same business. Pulteneytown is
supplied with water from the loch of Hempriggs, and Wick a few
years ago brought an abundant water supply from the loch of
Yarrows, at a cost of £6,000. Ship building has entirely ceased
since the demise of Mr. Bremner, whose engineering talents were
successfully employed in floating the Great Britain steamship,
which grounded on tiie coast of Ireland ; but the business of boat
building is carried on, and with the manufacture of herring barrels
and nets is the principal source of employment for the non-fishing
class. The herring trude must be taken as the staple, and in the
season commencing in July and ending in September, the heme
fishery is prosecuted to an extent almost unparalleled elsewhtie.
From May to July the fishermen are busily engaged with tho
summer fishing at Stornoway and other places in the Western
Hebrides. During the home fishing the population is increased by
au influx of about five thousand Highbinders, men and women, who
come as " hired hands." The scene both on water and land at this
time is not to be equalled anywhere. About 600 boats manned by
six men each, sot sail every evening for the fishing ground, the
distance to which varies from ljj to 60 miles, and return next
morning. The sight, which is unique, is witnessed by spectators
who come from all parts of the country. The gutting and curing of
the herrings gives labour to hundreds of men and women, and on a
busy day the quay presents a scene both animated and picturesque.
On all sides one hears the voice of Gaelic and broad Scotch, mingled
with French, Dutch, German, and almost every other national tongue.
The winter herring, cod and liug fishing is carried on extensively.
It brings to the town fish buyers from all the large centres of popu-
lation, in England, The fish exported from Wick during a year is

compuied at about .£300,01)0, the beneiit from which is diffused over
a wide district. The railway transports the whole winter catch to
the southern markets, while the vessels belonging to the port, and a
large contingent from other Scotch ports, and also foreign vessels,
are busily engaged taking the summer iish to Dantzic, Hamburg,
St. Petersburg, and other places on the continent, and various ports
in Irelaml. Six branch banks are established hero, nanit-ly, the
Commercial Bank of Scotland, Limited, the Town and Countj-
Bank, Limited, the Union Bank of Scotland, Limited, the Bank of
Scotland, the British Linen Company, and the North of Scotland
Bank, Limited. There is also a National Security Savings Bank,
which is well supported. There are two weekly newspapers, the
Northern EnsignfinU the John o' Groat Journal.
"Wick was erected into a royal burgh in the j'earl589, by the influ-
ence of George, Earl of Caithness, whose principal residence was at
the strong castle Girnigo, concerning the antiquity of which there
is no tradition, but by its construction and workmanship it appears
to have been of Danish origin. It is situated about two miles from
Wick, and the greater part of its walls are still standing. Adjoining
the Castle of Girnigo is Sinclair Castle, of almost equal antiquity.
Near by stands Ackergill Tower, the residence of G. Duff Dunbar,
Esq. (of Henipriggs), who receives about one fourth of the rental of
the whole parish of Wick— the valuation of the parish, iueluding
the Parliamentary burgh of Wick, being £9,858. Another interesting
ruin in the vicinity is Oliphant Castie, known as the '* Old Man of
Wick," which along with the lighthouse on Noss head (one of the
best lights around the British Isles) form excellent landmarks to
Beamon. There are numerous remains of Pictish dwellings in the
district ; five stone coffins and a number of weapons and a collection
of pottery have been found in different parts of the parish. The
Duke of Sutherland is superior of Wick, which is the county town
of the shire, a parliamentary burgh and the returning station at
elections. It joins with Kirkwall, Dornoch, Dingwall, Tain and
Cromarty in returning a member to the Imperial Parliament, its
present representative being John Macdonatd Cameron, Esq. The
government of the town is vested in fifteen councillors, from whom
are chosen a provost, three bailies, a dean of guild, and a treasurer ;
their jurisdiction, however, is confined to narrow limits, and the
amount of their revenue inconsiderable, being confined to the rental
of morket dues and soraf curing stations. There is a justice of the
peace court and a sheriff's court, the former sitting every alternate
Monday, the latter every Tuesday and Friday, with power to ap-
point a sitting when and where within the county. The customs
collection extends from iMeiltle Ferry to Cape Wrath, with Bub-
atationsat Thurso and Little Ferry, the number of shipping regis-
tered being about 6,500 tons. Different foreign states are repre-
sented by resident vice-consuls.
There are places of worship of the Establishment and tho Free
Church of Scotland ; the former have one in Wick and one in Pulteney-
town, and the latter one in Wick and two in Pulteneytown, and there
are others for congregations of United Presbyterians, Independents,
Evangelical Union, Baptists, Roman Catholics, and Episcopalians.
The United Presbyterians, Independents and Episcopalians have
built, new churches, thereby adding greatly to the architectural
beauty of the town; the locality of each and their officiating
ministers are given in the Direetory. The Pulteneytown Academy
was founded and endowed by the British Fisheries Society, but is
now under the control of the burgh School Board. Since the passing
of the Education Act, great improvements have been made in tho
schools of this district. The North and South and West Banks
schools are of a chaste and imposing construction, and were erected
at great cost. The Free Libraries Act was adopted in the parish of
Wick in 1887, and premises for a library and reading room have been
fitted up in Ujiion street, Pulteneytown. The Chamber of Commerce
is composed of tho principal business men in the district, and meets
on the first day of January in every year. The Agricultural Society
holds an important annual cattlo show at Georgemas, on the last
Friday in February. A market is held every Friday, and fairs on
the 24th June (if Tuesday), or Tuesday after, Tuesday after 20th
July, and tho first Tuesday after the 17th November (old style) ; but
the stock of the district is generally disposed, of at auction sales
held at Wick and Thurso. In 1871 the parliamentary burgh of Wick
contained a population of 8,131, and in 1881, 8,026.
Watten is a parish situated about 9 miles w.N.w. of Wick, and
is bounded on the north by Bower, on the east by Wick, on the
south by Latheron, and on the west by Halkirk. In the north-west
part of the parish, which is of a square figure and measures from
7 to 8 miles each way, there is a line sheet of water about 3 miles
in length, called Loch Watten, from which issues a branch of the
river Wick. There are places of worship in connection with tho
Established and Free Churches, and a Board school is in the village.
The parish of Watten comprises an area of 30,579 acres, and in ltSl
contained a population of 1,406.
Canisbay is a parish 7 miles from Keiss, situated on the Pentland
Frith, and includes Duncansby Head, John o' Groat's House and
Stroma Island. In size it is about 10 miles by 5. The inhabitants
are chiefly employed in agriculture and fishing. There are Estab-
lished and Free churches and a board school in the parish. Acreage,
26,243. Population in 1881, 2,626.
Bower is a parish 10 miles n.w. of Wick, and in size is about 11
miles by 3, rising from Heather Cowcairii,from which a fine view is
obtained. Acreage, 19,677. Population in 1881, 1,608.

CLACKMANNANSHIRE.
rriilS county, the smallest in Scotlaud, is bounded ou tlio south aud west by tho Frith of Forth and Stirlingshire, and on the north
and east by Perthshire; on the east also, it joins for a short distance the county of Fife, and a detached portion of Stirlingshire,
touches part of its northern verge. Its figure, which is extremely irregular, does not exceed ten miloB at its greatest length, nor more
than eight at its extreme breadth, and it has an area of forty-six square miles, or 29,741 statute acres.
Anciently tho whole of tho valuable territory lying between the rivers Forth and Tay, and bounded ou the north-west by the chain
of the Ochil Hills, was called Boss, as being a sort lot peninsula, terminating at Stirling. In course of time the district of Ross was
divided amongst the shires of Fife, Kinross, and Clackmannan, with the introduction of a slip of Perthshire, on the edge of the Forth,
in which is situated tho towu of Culross. Among the ancient structures of the county are three old towers ; one of them, near Clackman-
nan, is s thl to have been erected by Robert Bruce ; another, contiguous to Tillicoultry, is supposed from its similarity of architecture to
have been built by tho same 'person, or about the same period ; the^third, or the Alloa Tower, is more particularly noticed in the deB- ]
| cription of that towo. At Dollar are the ruins of Castle Campbell, standing on a lofty eminence, which are also particularised in the
description of that village. From the shores of the Forth the surface of tho county rises gradually to tho Oehil Hills, the highest of
which, Bencleugh, attains the height of 2,000 feet above the level of tho soa, and is in the parish of Tillicoultry. The higher grounds are
partly pastoral, but the whole of the lower parts, adjacent to the Forth, are rich, arable, and beautifully enclosed. Besides the Forth
\ the county is watered by two other streams, namely, the Devon and the Black Devon, and it is connected with Railways, by means of
branches of the North British and Caledonian lines, communicating with Alloa, Clackmannan, Alva, Tillicoultry, and Dollar.
Mandfactop.es, PnoDDCE, &a.— The manufacture of woollen goods, in shawls, plaidings, tartans, Ac, has been for many years es-
tablished in the parishes of Tillicoultry aud Alva, with complete success, and the towns belonging them have become thriving places in
consequence, and furnish employment to many hundreds of persons. At Alloa and Clackmannan, wool spinning is carried on very ex-
tensively. Throughout the whole county coal is worked, and at various times valuable ores of silver, lead, copper, etc., have been found
in the Ochils.
This shire contains four parishes and two portions of parishes; its only towns are Alloa, Clackmannan, Dollar, Tillicoultry, and
Alva; the last named is connected judicially with Stirlingshire, and politically with Clackmannanshire. The county possesses neither
royal nor parliamentary burghs, hutit unites with Kinross-shiro iu returning one member to Parliament. The present representative for
the joint counties is tho Right Hon. John Blair Balfour, Q.c. Tho parliamentary constituency in [1887-88 was 5,812. The entire county
contained, by the census returns of 1871, a population of 23,7-17, and by those of 1881, 25,6S0. Tho valuation of the county for 1887-88 was,
exclusive of railways, £121,922, and of railways, £11,151,

ALLOA,
WITH SOUTH ALLOA, TULLIBODY, SAUCHIE AND CAMBUS.
ALLOA, a town of considerable commercial importance, and the
leading one of the couuty, is 30 miles N.W. from Edinburgh,
32 s. from Perth, 7 e. from Stirling, the samo distance s.w. from
Dollar, 5 n.w. from Kincardine, and 3 s.s.w. from Tillicoultry. Tlie
word "Alloa" is supposed to bo a corruption of the Celtic words
" Aull xoaeg ; " signifying the way to the Boa, or the sea-way. It is
situated ou the north hank of the river Forth, at tho point where
the river ends and the Frith begins. At tbis spot, and fur ten miles
above it, tho water is deep enough to admit vessels uf 70 tons. The
quay stretches along the bank, and large vessels or sieainboats can
thus lie close up to tho thoroughfare, to the great convenience of
passengers, and is the more worthy of appreciation as this is tho
only port on the Frith at which such can be accomplished with per-
fect ease and safety at any tide. A dock was constructed in 1803,
which is GOO feot long and 150 feet broad, with 21 feet depth of
water. Till 1854, Alloa was a bur^h of barony, under the manage-
ment of trustees, but in February of that year, the inhabitants
adopted tho Burgh and Police Act, aud in lSGl!, the Commissioners
under that Act unanimously adopted tho General Police (Scotland)
Act of 1S62, known as " Lindsay's Act." Tho burgh of Alloa is now
governed by a board of nine commissioners, constituted agreeably
to the provisions of tho above Act, one or them acting as chief
and two of them as junior magistrates. An ordinary meeting is
held ou the second Monday in each mouth, and statutory meet-
ings on the second Monday of tho months of January, April, July
and October. The ordinary and small debt courts for the couuty
are held weekly, a sheriff court twice a week, a justice of the
peace court at stated poriods, and n liars court annually.
Of late years the town has considerably improved iu appear-
ance, many of the oldest houses having been removed to
make room for others of a more modern class. Many public
buildings have been added, and constructed iu such a style
As to enhance the appearance of the town. At the top of
Mar street is situated the County Court House, erected iu the
Flemish style of architecture, at a cost of .£8,700, and which was
formally opened on the 8th of December, 1S65. About the middle of
High street is the Corn Exchange, wbicli iB used also as a public
hall ; it was built in 1862, at a cost of £1,150, and is the property of
a joint-stock company. Powers having been acquired for feuiugthe
glebe which lies to the west of the town, a now suburb has made its
appearance there, the principal building being the Archaeological
Museum, and Hall. This institution was erected in 1874, and be-
sides furnishing tho members of the Archaeological Society with
suitable accommodation for their specimens, library and meetings,
affords advantages to the public for meetings of a smaller kind
than those held in tho Corn Exchange ; the total cost was
about £2,000. At a little uistanco from this hall a new burgh
school has been built on the site of tho old assembly rooms
and parochial school ; it was opened in 1870, and accommodates
500 scholars, the cost being about .£5,000. In Gr^enside
street are the Paton School and the Givonside Chapel. The
former was erected in 1865, from a trust fund left by the late
Alexander Paton, Esq., of Cowdeu Park, for educational purposes,
aud is suitably endowed. The front of the school faces the foot
of Candle street, and, with its ornamental tower, presents a hand-
some appearance. The latter was built by D. Paton, Esq., and
placed by him under trustees for the beuelit cf the Young Men's
Christian Association. Iu Bank street, which is a continuation of
Mill street, are tho Municipal buildings. The old Burgh chambers
had long been felt to be unsuitable, and in 1872 tho Commissioners
of the town proceeded to erect the very beautiful buildings which
grace the street in which they stand; thev are in the Grecian style
of architecture, and cost about £4,000. Adjacent to these is the new
Post Office, a substantial three-storey building in the classic stylo
of architecture, which was opened on the lyth of November, 1882.
The town is extending principally to tho north, at Greenfield aud
Claremout, and eastward along tho OlacUmauuau road. Villas are
also rising to the west in rapid succession, adding much to the
beauty of the place, amongst which may be mentioned the beautiful
mansion of Norwood, the residence of J. Thomson Paton, Esq. It is
in the Scottish baronial stvle, and forms a point of attraction iu the
approach to Alloa from the west. Beyond it is Arnsbiae House,
the residence of James Younger, Esq.. a line building in a command-
ing situation. In 1877 land was acquired bv the Commissioners, as
a feu, from the Earl of Mar and Keltic, which has been laid out as a
public park. It extends over 20 acres, is triangular in shape, and
generally level, with tho exception of a slight elevation at the north-
east comer; it was formally opened on the 1st of May, 1878. At the
east end of the town a new cemetery has been laid out, which covers
an aiea of six acres. The Public Hall and Free Library is situated
in Mars hill with the main front looking down Church* street, and
with access to the back from Mar place. It is the gift of John
Thomson Paton, Esq., of Norwood, and was designed by Mr. Water-
house, e.a. of London, iu tho Gothic style, the large hall being
capable of holding 1,000 people. Mr. Paton has also presented an
organ to the hall at a eost of about £1,700, aud has likewise given
£l,000for the founding of the library, the ratepayers having adopted
the Fiee Libraries Act on tho ,22nd June, 1880.
The trade of Alloa lias bqen gradually increasing, and it is expected
that the improvements and enlargement of the dock will contribute
to its further development. In 1871 a bill was obtained giving powers
ior the construction of new works.and under i hese powers tho Harbour
Trustees have greatly extended tho dock, aud have also obtained a
powerful steam dredger for keeping the dook and harbour clear of
mud. Beside the brewing and yarn trades, for which the town is
go noted, many other articles of industry are produced. There
are several foundries— iron, copper and brass— extensive bottle
works, a pottery, to which has been added a department for glass
engraving, machine works, cooperages, saw mills, a ship building
yard, a brick aud tile manufactory) and a dye-wood works. The col-
Heiies around Alloa are very numerous, and the export trade of the port
depends to a large extent upon them. There are five branch bank-
ing establishments— the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, tho Commercial
Bank of Scotland, Limited, the National Bank of Scotland, Limited,
the Union Bank of Scotland, Limited, and tho Royal Bank of Scot-
land, together with a Bank for Savings. Four newspapers are pub-
lished in Alloa weekly — tho Advertiser, the Circular, tho Journal, and
tho Weekly News. Immense quantities of whiskey are manufactured
here, the Carsebridge Distillery, one of the largest in the kingdom,
being capable of producing from 50,000 to 00,000 gallons
of proof spirit weekly, and the quality and quantity of
the ale exceed those of any other town in Scotland.
About 100 vessels of various burthen belong to Alloa and its adjacent
creeks. The exports comprise ale, whiskey, glass bottlos, coal, wool,
and woollen goods ; thcimports are timber, oak, bark, hides, butter,
cheese, and large supplies of grain for malting. Tho latter forms
now A principal feature in tho imports; largo vessels of 600 or 700
tons may bo seen discharging here at one time. Communication
with Edinburgh, Stirling, and the towns on the Frith is afforded by
steam packets throughout the ycat , and the ferry steamboat crosses
every hour to South Alloa on tho opposite side of the Forth where
nro extensive timber yards and sawing and planing mills, and also a
terminus of a branch of the Caledonian railway. A free shipping
tidal port is formed at this part of the Forth. The great depth of
water, together with the facility of railway transit, show this
locality as eminently eligible for the purpose, as is proved by the
fact of the largo number of vessels daily arriving. Alloa is well
supplied with railway accommodation. The North British line from
Stirling divides here, one branch going to Dunfermline aud one to
Kinross, aud now by means of the Forth aud the Tayjbridpes the ex-
press trains between Glasgow and Dundee pass this way. In 1878 an
Act was obtained in Parliament for the purpose of making u railway
from the South Alloa brauoh of the Caledonian line to the town'
with a bridge over tho Forth, the undertaking being promoted by
an independent company, bached by the Calodoniau Company, who
subscribed £10,000 of the necessary capital. The foundation stone
of the bridge was laid on the 5th of April, 1882, aud has been suc-
cessfully completed. It consists of seveutecu spans, two of 100
feet, two of 80 feet, aud thirteen of 08 feet, the piers on which the
giidwrs rest rising to a height of 24 feet above high water mark. In
the fairway of tho channel are two opening spans of 60 foet each
which turn ou a massive central pier, consisting of Bix cylindrical
columns, to permit of vessels passing up and down the river. Each
of the girders was tested with a pressure reaching to 3 cwt. to
each foot of space. All are of malleable iron, of such quality as will
bear a teneible strain of 22 tons per square inch before fracture, and
of 11 tons per square inch when in permaueot way. The bridge,
which has one line of rails, is 17 feet in breadth outside, and 14 leet
iuside the girders ; the estimated cost of the line and bridge was
£64,000. Messrs. Watt & Wilson, of* Glasgow, were the contractors.
With this imprrod train service both by tho North British and
Caledonian Companies, it new and most commodious joint station
has been erected a little cast of the old one, at the head of
Pi ion-use st.
Tne parish church, which was first opened for divine worship on
the 24th of June, 1819, forms one of tho most prominent objects in
the town. It is a tine ftructure, in the pointed style of architecture,
being raised at an expense of £8,000. The spire is very handsome,
and was added to the tower by public subscription; the Earl of
Mar considerably improving it by giving a bell and a Hue
clock. St. Andrew's chapel of ease, in the early English style of
architecture, aud presenting a simple though massive appearance,
was opened on the 20th of November, 1882. The other places of wor-
ship are two Free churches, two United Presbyterian churches, a
Baptist chapel, a handsome Episcopalian church with a peal of
bells, a Roman Catholic chapel, and one for Swedeuborgians. The
Alloa Hospital, which was instituted in February, 1867, mainly
through the liberality of the late Earl of Kellie, is designed for
tho medical and surgical treatment of persons in the county of
Clackmannan suffering from disease or accident. A detached
building is available to the local authorities of the burgh and
parish of Alloa for the reception of persons suffering from infectious
diseases. It is under the management of a committee who are
annually appointed from the subscribers, and is supported by volun-
tary subscriptions. Of educational institutions, the first to be
mentioned under tho School Board is the Alloa Day Home, which,
iu addition, was formerly a ragged school, and was instituted ou
the 29th of January, 1834, to aid in securing the olemeutary education
of poor and neglected children in Alloa by providing superintend-
ence aud one or more meals a day. Children under 14 yours of ago,
of both sexes, and of all denominations, are eligible for admission.
There are three other Board schools — the Burgh school, the
Ludgate school, and tho Academy, besides which there are also a
Homan Catholic, an Episcopal, the Paton Endowed, and two
ladieb' schools. Iu winter three curling clubs— the Alloa
Club, the Prince of Wales Club, and tho Alloa Park Club,
meet on their respective ponds to practise the " roaring game."
Tho town is well supplied with gas, the Alloa gas works, which were
up to 1887 iu the possession of a private company, being now the
property of the Commissioners, having been acquired by them at a,
cost of £23,250,the amount fixed by the valuators. Until 1822, the town
was very badly sapplied with water, hut iu that year a supply was
obtained from a large artificial loch known as Gartmorn Dam,
which covers 1G0 acres of ground ; and in 1867, the supply being again
inadequate, two large filtering beds were constructed iu addition,
the water being conveyed to the town through 10-iuch and 12-inch
main pipes ; the total cost of the waterworks up to the present time
is £6,000.
Alloa, in its immediate neighbourhood, presents scenery at once
beautiful, bold aud picturesque. On the north side is the range of
22— S-a-n

CLACKMANNANSHIRE
the Ochil hills, covered with verdure to their very summits, and
which fire, perhaps, unrivalled in Scottish landscape ; whilst the
south displays the Forth in all its natural splendour. Stirling Castle
on the west, and the Alloa and Clackmannan Towers on the east,
present to the eye a panorama of no common loveliness. The nohle
aud ancient family of Mar have long heen the proprietors of this
place. They forfeited the earldom by their participation in the
rebellion of 1715, hut the title and privileges were restored in June,
1824. Alloa Tower was the residence of this family. It was a quad-
rangular building, but was in 1800 destroyed by fire, and the square
tower now standing is all that remains of the ancient
structure, though it is still a place of great strength.
The walls are eleven feet thielt, and the highest turret is eighty-nine
feet. It was bnilt by the sovereigns of Scotland previous to the
thirteenth century, and is a stately remnant of feudal grandeur. It
has frequently been the resort and residence of royalty. The
beautiful and unfortunate Mary spent a portion of her youth and
maturity with the Mar family , her son James also passed many of
his youthful days here, having been committed by his mother to the
then Earl of Mar ; and his son, Prince Henry, received a part of his
education in this building under the celebrated George Buchanan.
The prospect from the summit is beautiful and extensive, and
worthy the attention of the tourist and stranger. The Tower is now
uninhabited. Alloa House, now formiug the residence of the Earl
of Mar and Kellie, stands a short distance eastward from the Tower,
and was erected in 1834, but has since been much added to and im-
proved. Alloa market is held on Saturday. Cattle fairs are held on
the second Wednesday in February, May, April, August, and
November, all new style ; and a hiring fair on the second Saturday in
October. The parish of Alloa is in the Presbytery of Stirling, and
embraces an area of 5,499 statute acres, with a population, in 1871, of
9,940, and in 1881 of 11,628, the burgh at the latter period containing
8,812.
Cambus is a small village situated on the Forth, in the
old parish of Tullibody, two miles w. from Alloa and five
from Stirling. It is also a station on the Stirling and
ALLOA
SLATER'S
Dunfermline section of the North British Railway, and the branch
liuetoAlva here joins the main line. The river Devon here dis-
charges itself into the Forth, and there is a pier where small
vessels are enabled to discharge and load. Brewing and distilling
are extensively earned on here. Population in 1881, 209.
South Alloa is a village and seaport in the parish of Airth,
situated on the south hank of the Forth, opposite to Alloa, in the
county of Stirling; it is crossed by a ferry. There is a branch of
the Caledonian railwav to this place from Ltirbert for goods
traffic.
Sauchie (New and Oldl are populous villages immediately con-
tiguous 10 each other, in the parishes of Alloa and Clackmannan,
nearly two miles north of Alloa, on the road to Alva. There is an
Established church here, which was built in the year 1844, and the
district is now fdVmed it.tn a quoad sacra parish. A great number of
colliers, employed by the Alloa Company, reside in these villages,
and there is a Sunday school for their children maintained |by an
endowment lsnown as Lady Charlotte Erskine's. A fine Board
school, with accommodation for Sf>0 scholars, has been bnilt at
Fishcross, where the Sauchie railway station is, and also one at
Holton at the other end of the district, to replace the old colliery
school. The station hero is on the Devon Valley section of the
North British Hailway.
Tullibody parish was united to that of Alloa about the time of
the Reformation, and the village is situated two miles w. from that
town. The ancient kirk of Tullibody, the date of which is 1549, was
unroofed under circumstances of a peculiar character. In the year
1559 it was made to serve the purpose of abridge across the Devon
for the French troops when they retreated before the English. The
church continued in a dismantled condition for upwards of two
centuries, when it was again covered in by George Abercrombic,
Esq. of Tullibody, and occasional services are now held in
it. There is also a very neat Free church, erected in 1845, adjoining
the old kirk, and there is a Board school in the village. Cambus is
the nearest railway station. Population in 1881, G94.

ALVA.
THE burgh of Alva, which is now a thriving ono, is in the parish
of that name, and is also a station on the Alva branch of the
Stirling and Dunfermline section of the North British Railway.
The town is seven miles E. from Stirling, three and a half n. from
Alloa, two w. from Tillicoultry, and live W. from Dollar, charmingly
situated at the foot of the Ochils, whence issues a stream that turns
several mills, and firms, in its course through the romantic and
interesting glen of Alva, three beautiful cataracts. The largest of
the falls issues from an aperture in the rock above and tumbles from
a height of forty feet in one unbroken mass into a naturally formed
basiu below. An excellent pathway has been formed through the \
glen, which tourists now visit from all quarters. The parish is con- |
nected judicially with Stirlingshire, but politically with Clackraan- i
nanshire, and is surrounded on all sides by the latter county, excupt ,
the north, whore it is bounded by Blackford, in the county of Perth, j
It affords excellent pasture, is well cultivated, and the hills abound
with valuable ores, such as silver, copper, iron and lead. Sir John
Krskine. of Alva, about the year 1715, assisted by some miner* from
Leadhills, discovered a very rich vein of silver, in a romantic glen,
about midway between Alva House and the town. The precious »
metal made its appearance in small threads, which, upon being
followed, led to a very rich mass of ore ; some of it was so rich that
fourteen ounces of ore yielded twelve ounces of silver. So easily,
was the deposit of treasure reached, that not more than £50 sterling
had been exuended on it when the prize was found ; and during the
space of a little more tban three months it is said that ore was
obtained from which Sir John drew from £40,000 to £50,000. After
this mass was exhausted, the ore became so scarce an not to repay
the expense of working, and hence the enterprise was abaudoued.
In the year 1767, Lord Alva, nephew to Sir John Erskine, caused a
pair of commit u ion caps to bo made, for the use of the church of
Alva, from some of the remains of that ore then in his possession.
On these tbe following inscription is'eograved : " Sacris in Ecolesia
S. Servani, apud Alvoth, a.d., mdocjcxviIi, ex argento, indigena, I
D.D.ca,.— Jacob aa Erskiuei"
The manufacture of woollen goods, consisting of shawls,
tweeds, tartans, Ac, is carried on in the town and its neighbour-
hood very extensively, and numerous hands find busy employment
in the different mills; these, with their tall chimneys, exhibit an
interesting contrast with the lofty Ochils and the surrounding plain.
In 1870 the inhabitants adopted the Police and Improvement (1862)
Act, and in 1S80 the Burgh Gas Supply (1876) Act. Under the powers
thus acquired, improvements of great importance have already been
completed, and there is no doubt that the adoption of these acts is a
boon to tbo inhabitants. In the town is a branch of the Union Bank
of Scotland, Limited, and tUore is also a Savings Bank. The House
of Alva, the residence of the Johustone family, but which has been
occupied for some years by the Dowager Countess of Aberdeen,
stands on an eminence, projecting from the base of Woodhill, about
two hundred and twenty feet above the bed of the Devon, which
flows westward to join the Forth in the valley below, and fourteen
hundred feet below the apex of the mountain. From the summit,
which rises to an elevation of 1,770 feet above the sea level, the eyo
sweeps over an immense range of picturesque and interesting
scenery, stretching all the way from the German Ocean on the east
to the Campsie hills on the west, and includes among other attrac-
tive objects tbo Laramermoor chain, the Bass Rock, Edinburgh,
Arthur's Seat, the Pentland Hills, and the lovely and elastic winding
of the Forth. Perhaps the most interesting object for an antiquarian
in the whole parish of Alva would be the well of St. Serf, or Scrvanus,
the tutelar saint of the district, which continues to pour out its
bright and sweot waters in the minister's glebe at a little distance
from tho parish church. In 1874 public baths and washbouses were
erectod at the west end of the town, at a cost of about £4,000, the
gift of tbe late Laird of Alva, James Johnstone, Esq., who also, about
the same time, presented the inhabitants with a public park ; and in
lS7y a now cemetery was provided by the Parochial Board,wbich has
been tastefully laid out and arranged. The Town Hall, a plain
structure, erected about 1840, by public subscription, and enlarged
in 1871, will accommodate an audience of about l,0UO persons.

The places of worship are Established, Free ana UDited Presby-

first built in 1681; a -stone in the west side of the church, with tho
date over a coat of arms, refers to the erection of tlie original struc-
ture. In 1816 it was wholly rebuilt, and in 1S51 it underwent a con-
siderable extension. A stoue in the east side marks the date and

The parish is well provided with schools, and in addition to the
Board Schools there is one for infants, supported by Mrs. Johnstone,
of Alva House. Alva parish is in tho Presbytery of Stirling, and
contains an area of 5,458 acres, and had in 1881 a population of 5,113,
the burgh containing 4,961 of that number.

CLACKMANNANSHIRE
CLACKMANNAN,
WITH THE HAMLET OF KENNET.
CLACKMANNAN, the capital of the county and parish of that
name, though not now entitled to that rank from either its size,
population or commercial importance, was at one period a town of
some consequence ; hut since the improvement of Alloa, and the
superior facilities for commerce possessed by that place, it has sunk
into comparative insignificance. The name is believed to be
derived from the Gaelic word Clack, signifying the kirk town, and
annan the name of the lords of Auuaudale. It is 32 miles n.w. from
Edinburgh, and two s.e. from Alloa, pleasantly situated on an
eminence gently rising to the height of nearly two hundred feel j
above the level of the Forth. The surrounding scejiery is very (
delightful, and is viewed to great advantage from Clackmannan
Tower, which occupies a commanding site a little west of the town.
Tradition states that this tower was built by King Hubert Bruce,
close to which he had his palace, not a vestige of which latter
now remains. The tower is eighty feet high, and contains a variety
of apartments, reached by means of a spiral staircase. The sword
and helmet of the illustrious Bruce were formerly kept in the tower,
but in 1796 they were bequeathed to the late Eari of Elgin by the
widow of Henry Bruce, of Clackmannan, and are now preserved at
Broomball, Fifeshire. This venerable lady, who was a devoted
adherent of the Stewarts, with the sword of King Robert in her
hands, was wont to assume the privilege of conferring knighthood,
and when Burns the bard visited her he wras honoured in this way,
the old lady observing that " she had a better rigbt to make knights
than some folks." She died at the advanced age of 05 years. In the
centre of the town is a square tower and a portion of tbe west gable
of an old building, which was formerly the county court-house and
gaol. It was fast going to ruin, but in 1865 was restored and
furnished with a new clock having transparent dials, through the
liberality of the late Frauds Home, Esq., and is now an ornament to
the town. Close to the tower is the market cross, which, although
a relic of bygone days, is in a good state of preservation. Mention
may also be made of a whinstone, which is to be seen at the Cross,
upon which the king is represented to have frequently sat. T«r) save
this stone from spoliation of virtuosos, a number of gentlemen were
at the expense of elevating it on the top of a stone pillar ten or
twelve feet high. A public hall capable of accommodating about
400 persons was erected in 1888, at a cost of about ^61,500. The
principal trade of Clackmannan is that derived from the coal mines
worked by the Clackmannan Coal Co., which find employment
and humble competence to many of the industrious classes. A
large woollen factory, employing about two hundred hands, has been
erected near tbe river Devon by Messrs. John Paton, Sou & Co. of
Alloa. Tun and vat building is also carried on here, and at
Kilbaguc, a short distance from the town, is a paper mill. The Boil
of the parish in the carse is considered the richest arable in the
shire, and under tlie best state of cultivation. Kennet House, the
residence of Lord Balfour of Burleigh, is a short distance east from
Clackmannan, and is a line modern mansion, occupying a beautiful
and commanding site. There are two ports, one at Clackmannan
and the other at Kennetpans, where coals are extensively shipped.
Clackmannan is a station on the Stirling and Dunfermline branch
of the North British lailway. Tlie places of worship are the parish
church, a Free church, and one for United Presbyterians. The
first mentioned, erected in 1814, at an expense of £4,500, is a
spacious and handsome structure, equal to the accommodation of
1,200 persons. There are live public schools in the parish, with an
average attendance of 800 children. The parish of Clackmannan is
in the Presbytery of Stirling. Kennet is a hamlet in the parish.
Cattle fairs are held on June 26th and September 4th, if a Tuesday,
if not, the Tuesday following, but of late years they hava been very
poorly attended. Acreage, 9,437. Population of tne parish in 1881,
4,518; of the town, 1,501.

DOLLAR,
WITH GLENDEVON AND MUCKART (Perthshire), AND THE VILLAGES OF POWMILL AND BLAIRINGONE
(Partly in Kinross-shirk and Perthshire.)
"T\OLLAR is a parish and village, sitnate at the base of the Ochil
I ' hills, near their eastern extremity, on the road from Stirling to
Kinross, 9 miles from Clackmannan, 7 from Alloa, 12 from Stirling,
and 12 from Kinross. The climate is very mild and salubrious. A
great proportion of the consequence this village now enjoy-* is to he
ascribed to its Academv, which was erected and endowed by the
munificent bequest of John Macnab, a native of the parish, who,
though originally a herd boy, acquired by industry and perseverance
a large fortune. Ho died in January, 1802. Bv bis last will he
directed that one half of that fortune (about £90,000) should be
vested in the public funds, or some such security, in ordpr that it
might yield an annual income " for the endowment of a Charity or
School for the Poor of the Parish of Dollar." The bequest was made
to the* ministers and elders of the parish, for the time being, as
trustees. The sum thus bequeathed so far exceeded the require-
ments of the case that the trustees wisely laid the foundations nf
the institution on a broader basis. After a protracted litigation in
Chancery, a very handsome edifice was erected in lS19,nnd masters
anpointed to teach the Greek and Latin languages, together with
English, French, and other modern tongues; mathematics, natural
philosophy, geography, botany, drawing, writing, arithmetic, fenc-
ing, gymnastics, music, ivc. The Academy, designed by Playfair,
and to which extensive additions have subsequently been made, is a
large and handsome Grecian building with a portico, the pediment
supported by mx massive columns of the Doric order. In the centre
of the building is a large hall, containing the library with upwards
of 6.000 volumes. These books are lent to pupils and residents in
Dollar free of charge. The number of pupils at the present time
(1888) is about 700, a considerable portion being boarders from
various parts of tho United Kingdom. Many pupils after complet-
ing their studies have rison to eminent positions in life. The scheme
of education is regulated so as to prepare cither for the universities,
for commercial pursuits, or for civil engineering. The entire Btaff of
the institution emhrares the head manter and nineteen teachers.
Boarders ftro received by the be:td master, most of tho masters, and
other respectable residents. The constitution of the institution
lias recently undergone considerable alteration, under a scheme
prepared under the Education Endowments (Scotland) Act, 1882.
Primarv educntion, hitherto provided for in tho Academy, has
devolved upon the School Board, who are at present (1888) erecting a
handsome school ; while the institution has been reserved entirely
for secondary education, the course of study in it. commencing with
Standard V. (Scotch Educntion Code.) There aro separate depart-
ments for hoys and girls. Bursaries of various amounts are awarded
annually bv competitive examination. The Board of Governors
consists of 11 representatives — viz., one elected bv the minister aud
kirk session of the parish of Dollar; two by tho Commissioners of
Supnlv for the county of Clackmannan ; one by tho Commissioners
of Supply for the county of Kinross ; three bv the School Board of
Dollar; one by the Senatns of Edinburgh University ; one by the
Senatns of St. Andrew's University: one by tho School Boards of
Alloa burgh and Tillicoultry, alternately; and one by the School
Boards of Clackmannan and Alva, alternately. The session
commences in September and closes at the beginning of July,
There are also several excellent private educational establishments
in Dollar, for younger children, which prepare pupils for the course
of instruction at tho institution.
Dollar now boasts a goodly number of genteel honses and elegant
villas a respectable hotel, and numerous well-furnished shops.
Cottages and villa* are let for the summer season. It has also four
handsome churches— Established, Free, Episcopal, and United
Presbvterian. The parish church was erected in 1841, and is a neat
edifice with a square tower rising from the main gable. There
are alco a commodious mission ball, a branch of the Clydesdale
Bank. Limited, and extensive bleaehwo'ks, the property of William
J. Haig, Esn. About a mile from the village is the venerable
ruin of Castle Campbell, once one of the chief residences of
the Argyll family, ftnd Which wrb taken in J645 by the Mnrquia of
u4a
Montrose. The remains occupy the summit of a high and almost
insulated rock, aud in the hill itself is a remarkable chasm, called
" Kemp's Score," which still bears some marks of a stair. Origi-
nally called " Castlo Gloom," the name was changed by Act of
Parliament in 1489, to its present designation. The situation of
these relics of former strength and grandeur is highly romantic and
interesting, and will amply ropay the tourist for turning aside to
conti'inplate.both tho ruiusand the scenery. The view from the top
of the ruin is singularly beautiful and extensive. Though the castle
stands upon an eminence, it is surrounded on all sides, except the
south, by some of the loftiestof the Ochil hills, which rear their
summit to a height of over 2,000 feet above the sea level. The nam©
of John Knox, the Scottish reformer, is intimately associated with
Castle Campbell, and a mined archway, formerly one of the out-
works of the castle, is popularly, though erroneously, known as
'■ John Knox's pulpit." In the autumn of 1864 application was
made by the people of Dollar to Sir Andrew Orr, the proprietor of the
estate, for permission to construct a new footpath, making access
to the ruin more easy, and opeuing up some of the most wild and
beautiful scenery imaginable. The desired permission was readily
granted, and after an expenditure of £300, provided by subscription^
in the mouth of May, 1865, the path was opened. It is fully a mila
and a half in length, and embraces, besides the laud scenery, a
number of hoautiful waterfalls. The attractions of the place have
thus been greatly increased. Half-yearly fairs are held here on the
second Monday in May and third Monday in October. The parish
of Dollar, which has an area of 4,773 acres, is bounded on the north by
Glendevon, on the east by Mucltart and Fossowav, and on the west
by Tillicoultry ; in 1881 it contained a population of 2,500.
Muckart is a parish in Perthshire, 3 miles front Dollar, 11 from
Alloa, and 18 from Crieff. It is triangular in shape, aud its length
from east to west is about 5 miles, its greatest breadth from north
to south about 2% miles. The Devon forms its principal boundary,
separating it from Fossoway on the south and cast, while on tho
north and west two small streams separate it respectively from
Glendevon and Dollar. A branch of the Ochil hills runs east and
west along the northern boundary of the parish, terminating on the
east by a conical-shaped hill called Sea.mab, 1,442 feet above sea
level. The Devon iu this neighbourhood displays anumberof in-
teresting waterfalls, amongst which are the falls of Bumbling
Bridge, Devil's Mill, aud Caldron Linn. The water passes
through fissures in the rocks, which in many places present the
appearanco of having been rent asunder. When viewed from the
parapet of the Humbling Bridge, 120 feet above the level of the river
and over 500 feet above the sea level, the scenery beneath, on both
sides, is such as not to ho often met with, large numbers of visitors
being drawn to the spot; and sincotho opening of the Devon Valley
brauch of tho North British Railway, for which there is a station,
this locality has bocoine much frequented. In 1 645 every house in
Muckart parish, including the church, was burnt by the Marquis of
Montrose, when he sacked and destroyed Castlo Campbell, at that
time belonging to the Earl of Argyll. Besides the parish church,
which is at Pool, a small village, there is an United Presbyterian
church, one of the oldest in the denomination, and also in the centre
of the parish a Board school. Tho soil of Muckart is in general
light and gravelly, hut in some pans it is more retentive. Rumbling
Bridge is the nearest railway station. Acreage, 4.V28. Population iu
1881,001.
Glendevon is a parish in Perthshire, situated about 6 miles from
Dollar, 14 from Alloa, and 15 from Crieff. It is pleasautly situated
iu a glen, the Ochil hills bounding it on tho north and south. Tho
Devon rnns through the village, and iu the neighbourhood there
nre some very beautiful falls ; the river also abounds in trout, and
in the season anglers have good sport. There is also a mill here
lor wool spiuniug. The Dunfermline nndlnverkeithing waterworks
are situated iu this parish. The only antiquity is Glendevon
Castle, now In a good state of pressrvatiou, and which was formerly
an outpost of tho Douglas family. Ths only church (the Egttti?lish«.0

Blairingone and Powmill are hamlets in the parish of Fossoway,
which is partly in Kinross-shire and partly in Perthshire, distant
about 2>a and 4 miles respectively from Dollar, their post town.
Blairingone was erected a parish quoad sacra about the year 1855,
The church is a plain stone edifice, built in 1836; the interior waB
recently refitted at considerable expense. It was chiefly owing to
the liberality of the late Mr. Wyloe, of Arndean, that the pariah was
endowed, and at his death he bequeathed a further sum to increase
the living. The parish has a School Board of its own, and there is a
good public school situated near the church. The inhabitants are
chiefly employed iu agriculture. The nearest railway station is at
Dollar.

CLACKMANNANSHIRE
TILLICOULTRY,
WITH COALSNAUGHTON.
rpiLLICOULTRY, a parish and burgh, four miles n.e. of Alloa, two
1 miles h. of Alva, and threo w. of Dollar, is pleasantly situated
on the east side of the Ochil liills, and on tbo toad from Stirling to
Kinross— nine miles from the former and 15 from the latter town.
The name of the parish is supposed to be derived from the Gaelic
word Tidlich-cat-tiz, signifying the hill at the back of the country.
It is well supplied with excellent water from a stream that issues
from the hilU immediately behind the village. The river Devon,
when not far from its source, and when flowing eastward, forms the
northern boundary of the parish of Tillicoultry ; and after pursuing
a circuitous course of about 14 miles beyond the parish, again enters
it running eastward, and cuts its arable plain into two uearlyequal
parts. The town of Tillicoultry is rapidly rising into a place of
considerable importance from the woollen manufactures established
here, and likewise at Devonside, chiefly for malting shawls, fancy
plaids, clan tartans, tweeds, &c. In these branches the town and its
neighbourhood furnish employment to a very large number of the
industrious class. The inhabitants adopted the Police and Improve-
ment (186-2) Act in 1871, and the town is now governed by nine
Commissioners, having a chief magistrate at its head. Branches of
the Clydesdale Bank, Limited, and the Union Bank of Scotland,
Limited, are established in the town. In 1878, the late James
Archibald, Esq. presented to the Commissioners the sum of £1,500
for the erection of a tower and spire to the Popular Iustitute, which
is situated on the north side of the town, to which have now been
added an illuminated clock and bell. An Orphanage was founded
by the liberality of the late James Paton, Esq., who bequeathed
£5,000 towards the endowment of such an institution. The building,
which is situated at the north side of the town, was opened on the
21st March, 1879, and is capable of accommodating 30 inmates. The
parish abounds with coal, which is profitably worked. The Devon
Valley branch of the North British railway runs through the parish*
and has a station about half-a-inilefrom the town. The scenery of the"
neighbourhood is as interesting as that of any part of this county:
Benclcuch, the loftiest of the Ochils, rises directly to the north of
the town, to the height of 2,800 feet above the level of the sea. 'The
view from the summit of this mountain is Very graud and extensive*
The hills to the northward are said to contain various kinds of
miuerals, and about a century ago a copper mine here was wrought
by a Loudon company j tbo metal sold at £50 per ton, but from the
thinness of the seams the works were abandoned as unprofitable.
The principal antiquities are the ruins of a circular building on a
steep and rugged basaltic eminence which rises to the north of the
town, and the remains of a Druidicat circlo on the south end of a
rising ground lying to the east of it, called Cnuinghar. In 1862, two
urns, each about 18 inches in diameter, and the same in height,
containing human bones, were found in making excavations about
150 yards from this circle. Tbo places of worship are a church of the
Establishment, a Free church, a United Presbyterian church, one
belonging to a congregation of the Evangelical Union, and one for
the Congregatioualists, the latter erected in 1876, at a cost of about
.£8,000. The parish church is almost a square building, situated on
rising ground at the east end of the town. It is in the Gothic style
of architecture, the buttresses terminating in lofty and tastefully
carved finials. Handsome Board schools were erected in tbeceutre
of the High street in 1875, at a cost of about .£8,000. Coalsnaugh-
ton is a small hamlet in the parish of and about a mile from
Tillicoultry, where there are Board schools (erected in 1871), and a
mission church. The parish of Tillicoultry is in the Presbytery of
Dunblane, and embraces an area of 6,946 acres. In 1881 it had a
population of 5,344, the burgh containing 3,732.

DUMBARTONSHIRE
A NCIENTLY designated Lennox, and subsequently Dun-bartonshire (which latter, though not the most popular, is the proper
■**■ appellation), is a small county iu the west of Scotland, and considered as within the boundary of the Highland a. On tho west
it is separated from Argyleshire by Loch Long, Perthshire touches its northern extremity, the county of Stirling bourn's it on the east
and also on ihe north, Lanarkshire on the south-east, aud the Clyde separates it from the county of Renfrew on the south. The
figure of this conntry is rather singular ; it describes almost a perfect descent of semicircle, protruding on tho south and south-west,
its concavity being filled through its whole extant on the north and north-east by the county of Stirling. The distance between its
eastern and northern extremities is nearly forty miles, while the breadth of ihe shire is from five to thirteen, and in one part it is
only two miles broad; the parishes of Cumbernauld and Kirkintilloch, however, are not included in this measurement, being detached
from the main portion on the south-east, and lying between the counties of Lanark and Stirling. This severed portion of the county is
twelve miles long by from two to four and a half broad, aud was annexed to the district in tho reign of Robert I. The entire shire
embraces an area of 270 square miles, or 172,677 acres. In point of size this county stands as tho twenty-seventh, and in population
as the fourteenth.
Name and Early History.— In ancient times the name of the shire was Levanach, signifying "the country of Leven," which
was corrnpted in the course of years to Levenax, and more latterly to Lennox. Originally this district was tho residence of a British
tribe designated the Attacottie or Eithacacti, a word importing " dwellers along the extremity of tho wood." The descendants of tin's
people were not enslaved or expelled from their hunting grounds by tho Romans; they became known ns the Britons of Stratb-Olydc,
and, though almost perpetually at variance with their neighbours, they remained a distinct race till the reign of Malcolm IV From
these people the name of Dumbartonshire is said to be derived, and taken from the appellation of the castle, signifying " the hill of
the Britons." This region, until the early part of the last century, continued to be the ready prey of certain lawless Highland clans,
who lurked in the recesses of its interior, and were finally extirpated or reduced to quiescence and subordination only by the most
vigorous measures that could bo adopted by tho civil government of the country. It was at one period the property of a powerful
family of Saxon origin, one of whom, called Alwyn, the sou of Arkil, was elevated to he Earl of Lennox in the reign of Willium the
Lion, and his descendants for several centuries were at once heritable sheriffs of the comity and chief possessors of its lands. Tho
Earldom of Lennox was raised to a Dukedom in 1581; but Charles, the sixth Duke, dying without issue in 1672, tho honours of the
family, including the Earldom of Darnley, developed upon Charles II., as nearest male heir, who bestowed them on his natural sou,
Charles Lennox, after whose demise the estates were sold.
Produce, Manufactures, Ac.— In recent times great improvements have been effected in this country, and every year its prolificacy
and value are increasing in amount. The soil aud climate having been found favourable to the growth of timber, the district now
wenrs a warmer and more cheerful aspect than formerly, while tho income accruing from produce has been in a corresponding degree
augmented. The cattle of the shire are chiefly of tho West Highland breed, some of which are reared in the country ; the dairy has
become an object of attention and profit on most farms. The roads throughout have been groatly extended and improved within tho
last sixty years, a measure highly conducive to the agricultural aud manufacturing interests. A century has elapsed since the manu-
facturing dawn broke upon this part of Scotland — bloachnelds, about that period, making their appearance on the banks of Loch
Lomond and the Leven. About 1768 the first printworks were established on the Leven, but now calico printing and Turkey-red
dyeing are very extensively pursued at several places. Ship building, both iron and wood, is a branch of some importance, as is also
the manufacture of chemicals. Until 1831 the glass works of this county were in high repute, Dumbarton being their chief seat, but
they have now ceased to exist. Dumbartonshire docs not contain numerous mineral treasures within its bosom, but it has an abun-
dance of freestone and slate, and some coal and ironstone, the two latter, though wrought, yielding but a small return. The soil it
various, consisting iu the north and west of mountain and moor, and south and east of Loch Lomond, of deep black loam, clay, gravel
and bog and peat. The climate generally is good, along the valo of the Leven and the Clyde it is mild, but on the Kilpatrick Braes
and among tho mountains of Arrochar aDd Lu..-s tee cold is rather severe, and stormy weather is experienced.
Mountains, Lakes, Railways, &c. — These are tho most remarkable objects in the county. Of tho former the chief are those o
Arrochar, Luss, Row, aud Roseneath, which are inaccessible to the plough, and abound with moors, mosses and woods; the bills of
Kilpatrick, on the south, are of much less height, Ben Voirlich, adjoining Perthshire, having the greatest altitude, rising 8,300 feet above
the level of the sea. The other principal elevations are Ben Vane, 8,004 feet ; Ben Eich, 2,302 feet ; Ben Breach, 2,233 feet; Ben Reoch,
2,168 feet ; and Tullich, 2,075 feet. The precipitous and rugged summits of these mountains, constituting the Highland district, are
frequently capped with snow, and in the finest weather hid amidst the clouds ; some of these eminences are apparently volcanic, par-
ticularly tho rock on which Dumbarton Castle stands. There are about ten lakes or lochs, among which are Loch Long and Loch Gare,
projecting into the Highland territory from the Firth of Clyde ; but the most extensive, and perhaps, the moBt beautiful lake in Scotland
is that of Loch Lomond. It lies at the foot of the Grampian mountains, which terminate here, but seem to rise in many islands that
appear a continuation of tliem, or like fragments torn oft by some violent convulsion of nature. These islands, thirty-two in number,
are lofty and picturesque. On Inch Cailoch (or the island of Nuns) are the remains of a conventual church, and on Inch Murrius (or tho
island of St. Murrinus, two miles long, and converted into a deer park) are the ruins of a house ouce belonging to the Lennox family.
This magnificent expanse of water is thirty miles loug, in some places eight broad, and covers a surfaco of 20,000 acres ; the depth
varies from twenty to one hundred fathoms. It abounds with delicious trout, and the southern part has salmon; the parity of the
stream and the richness of its banks soothe the mind of the traveller, while the bleachfields, printworks and cotton mills, the villages,
hamlets, and gentlemen's seats scattered over an apparently remote district, must impress him with an exalted idea of the industry
and wealth of the inhabitants. The lake discharges its waters into the Clyde by the river Leven, which Is the only stream of any note
ill the district. The Forth and Clyde Canal, about 35 miles in length, extends from Grangemouth on the Forth to Bowling on the
Clyde. The North British Railway traverses the western division of the county, aud the Edinburgh and Glasgow (North British) tho
eastern division, through which also runs a branch of tho Caledonian line.
Divisions, Representation, &c. — Dumbartonshire is divided into 12 parishes, ten of which orm the presbytery of Dumbarton ; it
contains but one royal burgh— Dumbarton— and four burghs of barony. The only contributory burgh, or that which in conjunction
with others is represented iu tho Senate, belonging to tho county is Dumbarton ; it unites with Renfrew, Rutherglen, Kilmarnock and
Port Glasgow, styled the Kilmarnock Burghs, in returning one member to the Imperial Parliament. The present member for thecouuty
is Sir Archibald OrrEwing, Bart., of Ballikinrain, Stirlingshire The parliamentary constituency for 1887-88 was 10,603. The lord-
lieutenant of thecouuty is Sir James Colquhoun, Bart., of Luss, Dumbartonshire. According to the census returns for 1871, the population
of the shire was 58,857, and by those for 1881, 75,333. Tho valuation of the county for 1887-88 was, exclusive of churches, railways, and
canals, £874,212 ; of churches (landward), £2,141 railways (landward), £68,560 ; total, exolusive of the burgh of Dumbarton, £444,913.

ALEXANDRIA,
BALLOCH, BONHILL JAMESTOWN, KILMARONOCK, KENTON, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
ALEXANDRIA is an increasing town, on tho west side of tbe Leven
opposite to Bonhill. On the bunks of the river are several
extensivo print works. Its site is more commanding than that of
Bonhill, aud its situation both healthful and pleasant. The town
consists of several well-built stroets, and about a mile from it stands
Tullichewan Castle, a noble edifice, the residence of James Camp-
bell, Esq., from which an extensive view of tho river, aud of the
vale through which it winds is obtained. Between this seat and
Alexandria is the neat mansion of Broomley, which is also tho pro-
perty of tho same gentleman, and two miles distant is Cameron
House, the tasteful residouce of Patrick B. Smollett, Esq. The
places of worship here are ouo of the Establishment, a Free church,
a United Presbyterian church, and a chapel each for tbe Wesleyuu
Methodists and Uoman Catholics. There are two good Board
"schools — one in Main street, aud the other known as tho " North
Public School," the latter an imposing structure, erected in 1S84,
and elegantly fitted up in the most modern style. The Ewing Gilniour
Institute, consisting of library, reading and recreation rooms, is a
splendid new building, presented to the town by W. Ewiug Gilmour,
Esq. This handsome edifice, which is superbly furnished, cost about
£12,000. A handsome public hall is centrally situated, at the bridge
end; there is also a Hue drinking fountain in Main street, erected in
1870, in honour of the late Alexander Smollett, Esq., of Bonhill, by
his friends and tenants. Population in 1S81, 0,170.
Bonhill is a thriving little town, in the parish of its name, Gl miloB
w. from Edinburgh, is n.W. from Glasgow. 13 n. from Dumbarton,
and within one mile of the beautiful and celebrated Loch Lomoml ;
situated on the east side of the Level), and connected with Alexandria
by an iron suspension bridge. Very considerable business is done here
in calico-printing; and it is altogether a prosperous little place. The
town consists of one long ami tolerably well-built street. About the
centre of it, on tho margin of the Leven, stands the parish church, a
fine building, of Gothic architecture, with a square tower, containing
a handsome clock. It was finished in 1836, at an expense of nearly
£8,000, and contains about twelve hundred sittings. A Free church,
erected in 1844, is an elegant building of red freestone, with a tapering
Bpire; in 1885 it underwent restoration. It occupies a commanding
site, a little to tbe south of the parish church. On a gentle eminence
near the new bridge is a United Presbyterian church, erected inlSSD.
In 1880 a fine suspension bridge of iron was thrown over tho Leven ;
the span is 488 feet, and its cost, with tho approaches, £2,200, which
was defrayed by Captain Smollott, of Bonhill. The inhabitants
have made attempts to do away with the charge for crossing (one
halfpenny), but have failed. The land on both sides of tho Leven is
in a high state of cultivation, which together with respectable resi-
dences and recent improvements and erections, impart to this place
an appearance highly prepossessing. A fair is held on the first
Thursday in February for horses. Population of the town in 1881,
2,940.
Balloch is situated at the south end of Loch Lomond, and about
a mile north-west from Bonhill; it is the terminus of the North
British Railway. In 1842, Sir James Colquhoun, Bart, of Luss,
eroctod an elegant suspension bridge across tho Leven water,
previous to which passengers were greatly inconvenienced by the
ferry then in use. This bridge is twenty miles from Glasgow, by
Ronton and Dumbarton, but by avoiding the latter placo and pass-
ing through Bonhill the distance is reduced to eighteen mileB.
Balloch Hotel is beautifully situated at the foot of the "Queen of
the Scottish Lakes," and at an easy distance from the railway
station. A fair is held at Balloch on tho Tuesday before the last
Wednesday in April for cattle, and on the 15th of September for
horses— the latter being the largest fair in Scotland. Population
in 1881, 112.
Kilmaronock is a small parish adjoining that of Bonhill, and is
situated about 5 miles n.e. of that village. It contains nothing
worthy of note but the parish church, au United Presbyterian
church, aud two Board schools. Acreage, 10,825. Population in
1881, 027.
Renton is a largo village in the parish of Cardross, one mile s.w.
from Bonhill, the liko distanco s. from Alexandria, and two N. from
Dumbarton, most eligibly situated on the west bauk of tbe Leven,
which winds with much beauty below the village; on its banks are
two exteusive print works. A monumental column, bearing a Latin
inscription, is hero erected to the memory of the celebrated histo-
rian, Tobias Smollott, who was born here. It is a round pillar of
stonework, sixty feet in height, springing from a squaro base. This
memorial was erected by tho descendants of that talented indi-
vidual. The Victoria Institute, built in 1887, at a cost, including tho
library, of about £2,000, is a substantial structure, and was opened
oj Her Majesty's Jubilee day. It consists of a library of from 3,000 to
4,000 volumes, reading and recreation rooms, and also forms a first-
rate working men's club. Messrs. William Stirling & Sons, P. B.
Smollett, Esq., and Messrs. Turnbull & Co. largely contributed
towards its erection, the remainder being raised by public subscrip-
tion. In the village is an Established church aud three Free
churches, and also a Board school. A public hall, situated in Main
street, was erected in 1882. In 1881 Ronton had a population of
4,319.
Jamestown, with a population of 2,171 inhabitants, is a thriving
modern village, a mile distant from Bonhill, on the road to Balloch ;
extensive calico printing works are in operation here. There is a
neat church of the Establishment and a Bonrd school, and also a
public ball and recreation rooms, presented to the village in 1884, by
Sir Archibald Orr Ewing, ai.p.

DUMBARTON,
WITH CARDROSS, DARLEOCH, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
DUMBARTON s a royal bnrgu, the capital of the county and of
the parish to which it gives name; 59 miles w. from Edinburgh,
15 n.w. from Glasgow, 8 s.£. from Helensburgh, and 3 s. from Bonhill.
situated on a low piece of ground encompassed on its western quar-
ter by the Levcn, about half a mile from its junction with the Clyde,
and almost secluded from the view of persons ou the latter river
by the intervening castle of Dumbarton, which stands ou a huge
rocky eminence on the edge of the Frith, about half a mile from the
town. The rock of Dumbarton measures a mile in circumference at
its base, diminishing in breadth near the top, which is cloven into
two summits, one higher than the other ; these are almost perpen-
dicular, and riBe to a height of more than 300 feet. The fortress is
ontered by a gate at the southern base of the rock, and here are sit-
uated the guardhouse and lodging for the officers, from whence the
ascent is by some flights of steps to the part where the rock divides;
here is a strong battery, barracks for the garrison, and two large
tanks always filled with water; above these are several batteries
which command a most extensive range, especially up and down
the Clyde its defences are kept iu constant repair, and it is
300
garrisoned by a limited body of military unctionaries. The'
house of the governor is judiciously placed in the cleft oj
the rock, and erected in a style quite out of character with the
picturesque outlines of the precipice. Some parts of the rock are
magnetic. The rock of Dumbarton has been occupied by works
of a warlike character throughout the successive dynasties of
eighteen hundred years, aud consequently is the most ancient
stronghold in the counrry of which any record or tradition is preser-
ved. In Bede's time it was deemed almost impregnable ; but it was
reduced by famiue in 756, and taken by escalade in 1571 ; at other
periudB it has sustained sieges and assaults which our spaco will
not permit ns to detail. Dumbarton sulfored severely from an
inundation of the rivers Clyde and Leveu some time prior to 1607,
for in that year Parliament granted the inhabitants 87,000 merks
Scottish for raising bulwarks to prevent a similar calamity. The
burgh has greatly improved since 1855, when tbe Harbour and Folice
Acts were adopted. The present town is chiefly composed of one
main street, lying in a semicircular iorm around the head or west
end of the pouiusulu ; there are some by thoroughfare lanes aa4

detached houses, and an extensive suburb on the west side of tbo
Leven, leading to Reuton. It is connected with the latter by a good
stone bridge of five arches, reaching 300 feet iu length. The waters
of tbe Leven form a commodious harbour, and to promote the
facility of trade au excellent quay and capacious dock have been
constructed by Messrs. Deuny Brothers, A pier of pitch piue, the
property of the Dumbarton corporation and erected at a cost of
£12,000, was opened in May, 1875. It extends 765 feet from
the base of the Castle rock, southwards, towards the channel
of the river Clyde ; the gangway is six hundred and forty feet in leugih
and fifteen feet broad, and the pier head is ninety feet long and
twenty-five feet wide. The depth of the river at the extremity of
tbe pier head is ten feet at low water, so that steamers are able to
touch at the pier at all states of the tide. The streets, shops and
houses are lighted with gas supplied by the corporatiou. The town is
plentifully supplied with water, from the Long Craigs, and
the drainage is being rapidly completed. Dumbarton was long
famed for the manufacture of crown glass, but that branch
was finally extinguished in, 1848. The discontinuance of
this source of industry proved a serious drawback upon
tha previous prosperity of the town, for when these works
were in active operation they furnished labour to three hundred
workmen, and annually consumed 15,000 tons of coal, besides
employing a large tonnage of shipping, and paid from £40,000 to
£50,000 excise dutios per annum ; tbe property is now in other
hands, and the engineering establishment of Messrs. Denny & Co.
occupies a portion of the premises. The principal trade, and on
which the prosperity of t lie town uow chiefly defends, is that of ship-
building, which is carried on here extensively and with great spirit,
and at which about three thousand men are employed. There
are three extensive yards. Browing, tanning, ironfouudirig, and
sail aud rope making are also carried on to a limited extent.
In High street are branches of the Commercial Bank of Scotland,
Limited, tlio Clydesdale Bank, Limited, and the Union Bank of
Scotland, Limited. The British Linen Company have also opened
a branch bank, in Strathloven place. Dumbarton was erected into
a royal burgh by Alexander II. in the year 1221, and its privileges
{including its right of fishing in the Leven) were confirmed by a
charter of James VI. The municipal government is vested in a
provost, three bailies, a dean of guild, a treasurer aud nine coun-
cillors. The sheriff ordinary court and the commissary court are
held every Tuesday and Friday during session, the sheriff small
debt court every Tuesday during the session, and on vacation court
days. Quarter sessions are held on the first Tuesday m March,
May and August, and last Tuesday in October. The burgh unites
with Renfrew and Port Glasgow in returning one member to parlia-
ment. Kenfrew is the returning burgh. The original County ami
Burgh buildings were completed in 1S25, at an expense exceediug
£5,000; the accommodation being found inadequate, in 18ti;J tiie
interior was entirely reconstructed, and two spacious wings also
added, at a cost of £5,170. They form a noble structure, aud con-
tain convenient court rooms, with every suitable office ; the gaol is
placed at the rear of the court house, but it is not now used, the
prisoners being sent ou to Glasgow. A combination poor house was
completed in 1865, at a cost of about £7,000. increased accommoda-
tion being supplied from time to time. It is situated ou the out-
skirts of the town, iu a healthy and pleasant locality.
At the east end of High street stands the parish church, a hand-
some edifice, with a fine spire and clonk ; the erection was perfected
in 1811 at a cost of £6,000. A district parish church has been
erected at the east end of the town, called Knoxland church ;
it is a fine edifice, iu the Gothic style, and cost about £4,500.
Tho other places of worship are two Free churches, two United
Presbyterian churches, an Episcopal church — a splendid stone
edifice, erected ill 1873 at the east end of High street and Church
place — and an Established church at Dalreoch, a neat new stone
building. A mission hall has been erected at a cost of £500,
situated in Church st; there are also Wesley an Methodist,
Baptist and Roman Catholic chapels. All that remains of the
ancient collegiate church, founded in 1450, by Isabella, Duchess
of Albany and Countess of Lennox, aud dedicated to St. Patrick,
is one of the tower arches, which has been lenioved and placed
at the entrance of the late Burgh school, iu Church street, the
original site being required for the formation of tho Dumbarton-
shire railway, which passe* in the immediate vicinity of this
once extensive pile. The principal educational establishment
is the Burgh Academy, a truly eminent institution of long
standing. The late building proving insufficient for the growing
requirements of tho town, a much larger erection was pro-
vided thioii-ih tbe liberality of the council and inhabitants. The
stjle is French Gothic of the thirteenth century, the building
presenting a frontage of 132 ft.n-lorned by a beautifully ornamented
central tower 140 feet high. Above trie Academy are the rooms
pertaining to the Dumbarton School of Art, inaugurated November
25th, 1834, 'and in the rear of it is a largo public hall, embracing
every convenience, and capable of accommodating an audience of
ab >ufc 750. The interior of the building was entirely destroyed by
fire in 1882, and has since been handsomely refitted and furnished
with all the newest scholastic appliances. The expense of erection
of both buildings was about £6,000. There are also three Board
schools, erected at considerable expense ; a Roman Catholic school,
aiid an Episcopalian school, a stone building, constructed upou the
newest and most approved system, situated iu Risk street; the cost,
iucluiling the grounds, was £5,000, which was defrayed by Richard
D. Buchanan, Esq. Dungbtss Castle, Bowling. There are three
weekly newspapers established here— the Dumbarton Herald, the
Lennox Herald, and the Dumbarton Observer. There is a free
circulating library and reading room in High street. A pew public
park, called Loveugrove Park, and covering about 35 acres, has
been presented to the town by Peter Denny, Esq. of Helenslee, and
John MacmilhiTt, Esq. of Collfge Park. It is pleasantly situated, and
bounded by tbo Clyde and Leven, the grounds being tastefully laid
out. The cost was about £20,000, and it was opened May S0th*1885.
A cattle market is held ou Wednesday, which is well attonded •
there is also a large cattle fair held ou Carman Moo r on the first
Wednesday in June. Population of Dumbarton in 1871, 11,429, and
in 1881, 14,172.
Caudross is a smnll but respectable villago in the parish of its
name, situate four miles w. from Dumbarton, on the road io
Heleiisburgb, and near the shore of the Clyde. Prior to the
Reformation tho church of Cardross was a rectory, belonging to tbe
Cathedral of Glasgow, and was seated on a peninsula promontory
formed by the Leven and the Clyde; the present church, which
stands in tho village, is a neat edifice with » squaro tower. This
district is very pleasant and salubrious, and the situation of the
parish eligible for business. The vicinage of the village is the
residence of many respectable families, whose tasteful mansions
embellish the surrounding scenery. The parochial school here,
likewise a Free church, arc handsome stone buildings. The North
British railway have a station here. On Castle Hill are the remains
of the residence of Robert Bruce, from whence he could behold his
army encamped below. Population of tho parish in 1871, 7,080, and
in 1881, 0,365.

HELENSBURGH WITH BOW,
CLYNDER, GARELOCHHEAD, RAHANE, ROSENEATH, GLENFRUIN, SHANDON, COVE AND KILCREGGAN,
AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
HELENSBURGH is n modern town, burgh of barony anil sea-
port in the pariah of Row, 22 miles w.N.w. from Glasgow, nine
s. from Luss, and eight n.w. from Dumbarton; lying on the Firth of
Clyde, opposite to Greenock, from which place it is live milea distant.
The town, which ia a perpetnn.1 feu front Sir James Colqnhoun, Burt.,
of Lus8, was commenced in 1777, and since that period it has risen
into notice as the most convenient and agreeable watering place on
the Clyde ; it now consists of a series of handsome houses and streets,
laid out on a neat and improved plan. The accommodation for
visitors is equal to that of most, watering places ; numerous private
houses are well furnished for the reception of families or individuals
resorting hither in the summer. There is a superior and convenient
hotel, called the Imperial, opposite the old pier, and another some
distauce east of the town, called the Queen's, which lias heen licensed
since the beginning of the ceutuiy. A public library, circulating
libraries, and reading rooms are also in the town. The quay, erected
in 1817( and in 1872 greatly enlarged, extends from the centre of the
town a considerable distance into the river. The North British Rail-
way Company in 1882 erected a new station and pier at Craigendorau,
about a mile and a half eastward nf the town ; steamers run in con-
nection with the trains for the westcoast. Helensburgh was elevated
to the rank of the burgh of barony in 1802 ; Us municipal govermneut
is vested in 12 commissioners. A Police Court is held each Monday,
and at other times when required.
Helensburgh was created a quoad sacra parish in 1S62, the west
quoad sacra parish being constituted in 1872. The places of worship
are — two of the Establishment, anEpiscopal, a United Presbyterian,
and two Free churches ; also chapels for Congregntionalists,
Baptists and Roman Catholics, There are throe Boatd schools, one
of which, the Hermitage, is a lino structure ; there are also several
respectable boardingaca-lemies in the town. At the distance of two
miles, in a westerly direction, is Rosen eat h Castle, a seat of his Grace
the Duke of Argyll ; this noble edifice stands on the opposite side of
Loch Gare, and is well worth the stranger's notice. Opposite Rose-
neath, on the north-west bank of the loch, is situate Ardencaple
Castle, the birth-place of the present Duke of Argyll. A portion of
the castleis of ancient date, but the greater part is comparatively of
modern erection. It commands a good view of the Clyde and Gare
Loch, which flows between these splendid mansions, to a distance of
Heven miles into the mainland; and in the vicinage of the^town,
near the banks of the Clyde, are several elegant seats and resi-
dences. The following public buildings are worthy of note : The
Municipal Buildings, in East Princes street, is a handsome modern
edifice, embracing court hall, couucil chamber, and general public
offices, with police station and cells in the rear ; the new Victoria
Hall, Sinclair street, built by subscription at a cost of £G,000,is used
for concerts, public meetings, &c. ; the new hospital in King street,
erected at a cost of £3,01)0, contains under one roof a hospital for
infectious diseases, and one for non-infections cases, each having a
separate entrance and distinct airing grounds. The Bank of Scot-
land, situated in West Clyde street, is a fine stone building in the
baronial style of architecture, erected at a cost of £3.001) ; the Union
Bank, Limited, in Colquboun square, ond the Clydesdale Bank,
Limited, in James street, are also b"tb handsome stone structures.
A new park, opened to the public through the liberality of "William
Kidston, Esq., and the late Sir James Colquhouu, Bart,, is situated
at the foot of the Garo Loch, and commands an excellent view of
Roseneath Castle and the surrounding scenery. lu the neighbour
hood of Helensburgh resided for tweut-yfive years the celebrated-
Henry Bell, to whoso fertile and perseveriug genius Europe is
indebted for the first successful application of steam to the propelling
of vessels. The first trip ever made by steamboat in this division
of the globe was from Port Glasgow to Helensburgh, by the Comet,
in the year 1812. Mr. Bell was a millwright and engineer; he was
bom in the parish of Torphicheu, county of Linlithgow, April 7th,
1767, died at his house (now the Queen's Hotel), in Helensburgh,
November 1-ith, 1830, and was interred in the parish churchyard of
Row, where has been erected a memorial commuraorutive of the
inestimable benefits conferred by him upon his species, by rendering
subservientTo the use of man that stupendous power which now
successfully "combats the fickle wind and stems the flowing tide ;"
there is also a handsome obelisk on the esplanade, which has been
erected to hia memory. In 1871 Helensburgh had a population of
5,975 persons, and in 1881 r 7,693; this number is, however, greatly
increased by visitors during tho summer mouths.
Row is a small romantic village iu the parish of its name, situated
on the easteru margin of tho Garo Loch, about 2 miles w. from
Helensburgh. The parish of Row is chiefly of a hilly and pastoral
character, and the lowgrounds are fertile and beautiful. The parish
church stands in the village, near the Ferry across Garo Loch to tho
peninsula of Rnseueath ; opposite it is a point projecting into the
loch, and it is supposed that from this circumstance the name of the
parish is derived— the word Ehu signifying a point. The parish,
exclusive of a narrow strip on Loch Loug, is about six miles in
length by four in breadth, bounded by Luss on the east, Helensburgh
on iho south east, on the west by Gare Loch, and its south end is
washed bv the Firth of Clyde. Acreage, 20,126. Population of
tho parish in 1881,9,972.
Shandon, about 3 miles n. of Row, is a district containing some
fino villas aud mansions, and a large hydropathic establishment,
much frequented during the summer months. Here is a Free
church. A little to the north of Shandon is Faslane, where are the
ruins of an old chapel, surrounded by the remains of an ancient
churchyard.
Gaheloch Village, about 6 miles beyond Row, is prettily situ-
ated at the head of a loc-h, a screen of hills rising behind separating
the Gareloch-hcad from Loch Long. The interesting and beautiful
Glenfrtjin is approached from hero. This romantic place is studded
with many seats of the gentry, who mako this neighbourhood their
favourite resort from Juno to September. Facing the pier, where
tho plensuro steamers arrive and depiirt, stands the Garelochhead
Hotel, where every comfort aud accommodation can be obtained.
About a mile and a half on tho road to Arrocbar, on an eminence
called " Whistletield," splendid views may be had of Lochs Goil and
Long and the Gare Loch. Population in 1881, 460.
Roseneath is a parish cf 8,461 acres, occupying tho peninsula of
that name, extending for about 7 miles from east to west, and from
one to lour broad. The parish church, a small but neat modern
edifice, is within a quarter of a mile of the ferry and pier, and the
parochial school is adjacent. There is also a Free church in the
neighbourhood, and a United Presbyterian church at Clynder,
which latter place and Rahane are "districts in this parish, the
former 1 mile and tho latter 3 miles n. from Roseueath village. Rose-
neath Castle, already "noticed, is the principal object of interest.
Population of the pariah in 1881, 1 ,904.
About 2 miles over the hills is the burgh and village of Kilcreg-
gan, and a mile further west, at the entrance to Loch Long, is the
kindred village of Cove ; both are resorted to for sea bathing, aud
consist of a series of vilUs and mansions extending for some miles
along the shore; at each is a pier for the convenience of passing
steamers. The places of worship are an Established church, a
chapel of ease, and a United Presbyterian church. Population of
Kilcregsjau and Cove in 18S1, 816.

KILPATRICK (Old. or West) is a post village, in the parish of its
name, 53 miles w. from Edinburgh, 10 w. from Glasgow, and 5
E, from Dumbarton, situated on the road between the two latter-
named towns, aud occupying a pleasant site at the foot of a hilly
country, in view of the Clyde. The name Kilpatrick signifies the
" Church of Patrick," but iu this case tradition varies from fact, the
former authority stating it to be the " cell." while the latter proves
the definition just given to bo proper, for Patrick never was an
anchorite. It is generally supposed, however, that this parish was
the birthplace of the celebrated titular saint of Ireland. The tra-
ditionary record asserts that, at the age of sixteen, this individual
was carried off from this then civilised Roman district by a band
of Irish marauders, who made a descent upon this part of the coast,
and with other captives subjected to slavery in their own compar-
atively barbarous couutry; but the " Scolesia Hibmiicn " distinctly
states that he voluntarily lauded on the northern shore of Ireland iu
the year 461, after a residence of twenty-six years in the Roman
capital. The visit strengthened the connection that had priori}*
existed between the two nations. Within its limited locality the
place has not the advantage of any manufactory. At the entrance
of the village from Dumbarton stands the parish church, a ueat
stone edifice, surmounted by a square tower and clock, erected in
1812. At the east end of the village are a Free church and an
United Presbyterian church, and thero is also a Board school at
Gavinburn. Population of the parish in 1881, 8,768; of this number
the village contained 910. In 1888 the estimated population of the
parish was 18,800, and of the village 1,800.
Bowling is u small village about three-quarters of a mile west
from Kilpatrick, with a station on the North British railway. At
Bowling Bay commences the Forth and Clyde canal, which, after
traversing 35 miles in an eastern direction, empties itself into the
Forth at Grangemouth, thus connecting the German Ocean with the
Western Channel. This great work was begun iu 17G8, and opened
throughout on the 28th July, 1790. Vessels drawing eight feet of
water, having a nineteen feet beam, and a seventy-three feet keel,
can navigate this noble junction. The Trustees of the Clyde Navi
also a Board school — a handsome stone building— and a Roman
Catholic school. Perhaps the most ancient bridge in Scotland exists
here ; a stone near to it bears the following inscription ; —

which is thus translated:— "This bridge was built under the
auspices of the Emperor Titus JElius Antonious Adriannua
Augustus, father of his country, by Quiutus Lollins Urbicus, his
lieutenant ; being almost ruinous, it was restored by Lord Blantyre
iu the year 1772." A little above the bridge there was a fort and
watch tower, visible when Pennant visited this quarter iul772,

KIRKINTILLOCH,
LENZIE, WATERSIDE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
17 IRKINTILLOCH (formerly Kirkintnlloch) is an ancient aud
V. thriving manufacturing town, burgh of barony, and capital o,
the yarish of its name, situated in a detached portion of tbe 'count y
40 miles W. from Edinburgh, 20 s.s.w. from Stirling, 1G E. from
Dumbarton, the like distance w. from Falkirk, 7 n. from Glasgow,
the like distance w. from Cumbernauld, 5 s.w. from "Kilsyth, 4 s.e.
from Campsie, and 5 s.e. from Campsie. Gltu. It is situated on the
water of Luggie. near to its junction with the Kelvin, and is under-
stood to derive its name from the locality, the original designation
being Cairpentulloch, signifying in Cambro-British the fort on the
head or end of the hill, which is descriptive of the. site of the town,
standing as it does on the verge of a ridge, advancing from tbe
south into a plain on thebauks of the Kelvin. The wall of Antoninus
passed through this town, and one of his principal forts stood on the
summit of a hill, a little west of the parish church; tho site of a
fortresB called " Peel" is even to this day recognised by a deep moat.
A handsome monument of red Aberdeen grauite was, by public sub-
scription, erected on tho buuU of tbe Luggie, near the bridge, to
commemorate the heroic endeavours of a young gentleman named
Hazleton Robson, of Glasgow, to save a child's li Jo who had fallen
into the river, but who, however, failed in tbe attempt and lost his
own life. The monument bears a suitable inscription. About a
mile to the east of tho town, on the Inchbelly road, is the martyr's
stone, commemorative of John Wharry and James Smith, who were
captured at Stevenson Wood, Inchbelly, and taken to Glasgow,
where they were first tortured, then executed, and afterwards carted
out to Inchbelly wood, where they were shot out coffinless into the
moss and buried. The inscription states that they suffered at
Glasgow for their adherence to the Word of God and Scotland's
covenanted work of reformation. Kirkintilloch (which is the largest
parish in the shire) and the neighbouring parish of Cumbernauld
are separated from the rest of the county by tho north point of
Lanarkshire, and are surrounded by that county nud Stirlingshire.
The weaving of lappet muslin is carried on here, but not to eo great
an extent as formerly, the inhabitants being now chiefly employed at
the different chemical and iron works on the canal bank. There are
also coal & ironstone mines iu the neighbourhood. Tho monetary
transactions of tho burgh are facilitated by branches of the
Commercial Bank of Scotland, Limited, tho National Bank of Scot- ]
land, Limited, and also a branch of the National Security Savings
Bank. Few places possess more eligible advantages for inland
conveyance than this ; that great undertaking, the Forth and Clyde
canal passing through tho town affords a speedy and certain transit |
to tho east or west coast of Scotland. The Monkland aud Kirkintilloch
Railway, which extends to Airdrle, joining the Baliociinie. Railway j
about a mile from that town, has its terminus here ; this line also
joins tbe Garnkirkaud Glasgow Railway. The Edinburgh and Glas-
gow line passes over the Monkland and Kirkintilloch, a mile south
of the town, and near this is Lenzie Junction station. Kirluutilloch
is a free burgh of barony, its first charter having been conferred by
William the Lion, dated at Forres; it was granted to William Gum-
ming, of Cumbernauld and Kirkintilloch, and was subsequently con.
firmed aud its privileges enlarged. The town was formerly governed
by a senior and junior magistrate, otherwise bailies, ten councillors,
treasurer, and town clerk, hut in 1871 the inhabitants adopted the
General Police and Improvement (Scotland) Act, 1862, aud their
affairs are now administered by a body of 12 police commissioners.
Gas works were erectod by a private company for lighting the place,
but were acquired by the town under tbe Burgh Gas Supply Act,
1876. The Court House and Gaol, which form a substantial build-
ing at tlio cross, is ornamented with a tower aud spire, containiug a
clock with four dials. Burgh police courts are held fortnightly, or
more frequently if occasion requires. The magistrates act also as
! dean of guild, in erection of new buildings, &c. ; justice of peace
1 courts arc held only as may be required, a~d the sheriff's small debt
circuit court on tho first Thursday in March, June, September and
December. The parish church, which was built in 1644, and is in
the form of a cross, stands near the centre of the town. The other
places of worship in Kirkintilloch comprise the tjnoad sacra parish
church of St. David's, two Free churches, one United Presbyterian,
an Original Secession church, a Methodist, a Baptist, and a Roman
Catholic chapel.
In Lenzie there- are an Established church, a Union (Free and
U.P.) and tbe Episcopalian church. Fairs are held on the second
Tuesday in May, and October 20th for cattle and horses. The
following public institutions in tbe neighbourhood are worthy of
special notice, viz. : — Tho Barony Parish Lunatic Asylum, at
Woodilee, Lenzie, in connection with the Barony Parish, Glasgow,
was opened on 22nd October, 1875. The style of tho extensive
buildings is Elizabethan, the architects being Messrs. James Salmon
and Sou. The whole range is over 700 feet lung and 450 feet broad,
occupying about 6}^ acres of ground. Their cost has been £150,000.
Tho estate altogether extends to ?82 acres, costing over ,£30.01)0,
making a total of £1SO,000, and was bought by the Barony Parochial
Board, in 1852, at the price of £56 per acre. The principal external
features of the Asylum are two massive and handsome towers, each
rising to tho height of 150 feet from tho centre of the building, and a
very elegant fleche which surmouuts the chapel, which is seated for
400 persons. Its principal window is fitted with three divisions of
stained glass, representing Faith, Hope, and Charity, the work, of

Mr. Ballantine, of Edinburgh. The dining ball is also a very
commodious apartment. In it 600 persons oan be supplied at one
sitting. The recreation hall, oh the second flat ol the building, is a
room about 90 feet long by 60 feet at the broadest part, and is iitted
with a spacious platform for musical and dramatic entertainments.
There are in all 110 single rooms, and dormitory accommodation for
BOO other patients. The administrative department is so arranged
that it can be easily extended so as to provide for 800 or 1,000
patients. At Westermaius is also a private asylum, of which
Mr. Jas. Lawrie is proprietor, possessing every necessary requisite for
those mentally afflicted. The Glasgow Convalescent Home is situated
at Lenzie, about half a-mile to the south -east of the Railway station,
and is capable of containing 62 patients. The Glasgow Royal and
Western Infirmaries and the subscribers to the Home haye th»
privilege of recommending the general public as patients. Tn«
Bvooinhill Home, for the relief of incurables for Glasgow and the
West of Scotland, is Bituated at Kirkintilloch, and spends for the Rid
of such persons in their own homes .£100 a mouth. The boundaries
of the Burgh were a few years ago extended to include the eligible
building ground in close proximity. The entire parish of Kirkiu-
tilloch comprises an area of 7,146 statute acres, and in 1831 had a
population of 1C.591, the town having of this number 8,029.

LUSS,
ARROCHAR, TARBET (LOCH LOMOND), INVERARNAN, INVERSNAID, RO WARDENNAN, ARDLUI, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
T USS is a small romantic village, in the parish of its name, 69 miles
J J w.n.w. from Edinburgh, 28 n.w. from Glasgow, 13 n.n.w. from
Dumbarton, 10 n.n.w. from Bonhill, and 9 n. from Helensburgh ;
moat delightfully situated on the western margin of the justly-famed
Loch Lomond. Tho only business of consequence is the Cam-
Btraddan and Loss slate quarries, from which considerable quantities
of blue slate aro obtaiued, and conveyed to distant parts of the
country by means of small sailing vessels on Loch Lomond to
Balloon, and thence by rail. II healthiness of situation and beauty
of scenery be desirable, few places possess equal advantages with
Luss ; but that which renders it a place of paramount interest iB the
noble locb, on tho margin of whose pellucid waters it reposes, sur-
rounded by some of the most inviting and delightful scenery in
Scotland. In summer, the numerous pleasure parties crowding
here impart a gaiety of appearance to the lake, which, if possible
heighten the interest of this charming spot. Steamboats sail every
day (Sunday excepted), from tho south end of the tocb, calling at
Balmala, Luss, Taruet, Rowardeunau for Ben Lomond, Inversnaid,
&e., returning the same afternoon. Here resided the learned Dr.
Stuart, who translated the Bible into the Gaelic language; and on
the opposito side of the loch, near Dtymen, lived for a considerable
time Lord Napier, the inventor of logarithms. A fine view of Loch
Lomond, with its numerous islands, is obtained from Strone bill,
a considerable elevation ubout balf a mile north of the inn. About
2}£ miles s. of Luss is Roesdhn House, the seat of Sir James
Colquhoun, Bart., of Luss. It is a handsome building, with a tine
portico, seated on a low point of land, surrounded on three sides by
Loch Lomond. The church was dedicated to Saint Mackcssog, a
native of Lennox, who was a bishop and confessor, and suffered
martyrdom about the year 520, at a place below Luss, on the Bide of
the lake, where a large cairn of stone was raised to bis memory.
He was buried in the parish church, and was long regarded as tba
tutelar saint of this part of the country. The places oCvVflrship here
ore one of the Establishment and a Free oh arch. There fs a Board
school at Luss, and a parochial school at Muirland. A fair is held
hero on the third Tuesday in August. Acreage 21,206. In 1881 tho
parish contained a population of 719.
Arrochar (more properly Arroquhar) is a parish lying between
Loch Lomond and Loch Long, bounded on the south by Luss. It
extends nearly 10 miles in length by 8 in breadth. The village,
which is situated at the head of Loch Long, is 10 miles N. from Luss,
and about \% w. from Tarbet. Iu the parish is the celebrated Loch

UUMBARTONSHIRE
LUSS
SLATEE'S
Sloy, much resorted to by tourists. The Established churoh is a
neat strncture. Acreage 25,858. Population in 1881, 617.
Taebet is a much famed bote! and small village on Loch Lomond
about 8 miles N. from Luss, and, to distinguish it from Tarbert on
Loch Fyne, in Argyleshire, is generally designated Tarbet on Loch
Lomcnd. This place, which is much visited by tourists, is con-
sidered the most pleasing aud roir antic spot on Loch Loaioud, and
Ben Artbur, or the "cobbler," is best eeeu near to the hotel, and
Ben Lomond in front of it. The distance between Loch Lomond
and Loch Long is here about a mile and a half, and the arrange-
ments for conveyance in summer are snob that a person may leave
Glasgow, proceed by rail to Balloch, embark in the Loch Lomond
steamer, aud sail to Tarbefc, walk or ride across the isthmus to Arro-
char, where a steamer is ready to start again for Glasgow, down
Loch Long, aud up the Clyde. Ardlui is the terminus of the Loch
Lomond steataers. The Rowardennau and Inversnaid hotels are
on the opposite side of the Inch. Passengers alight at Rowardennan
pier for Ben Lomond. There is a Free church and a Board school
in the village.

TVTEW (or East) KILrATRICK is a parish partly in this county
_LM and partly in that of Stirlingshire ; its extent is upwards of six
miles from north to south, by a breadth of from two to four miles,
and contains 12,050 acres. A branch line of railway traverses the
parish, leaving the mnin lino at Mary hill, and terminating at Miln-
gavie, the station for New Kilpatrick being called Bearsdon, and as
the place is generally known by that name, letters should ho
addressed accordingly. The merchants and others engaged in
commerce in Glasgow, possess many handsome residences here,
occupying elevated sites and commanding extensive views of the
surrounding country. The Forth aud Clyde canal intersects it in
its northern part, entering the district on crossing the Kelvin, by a
stupendous aqueduct bridge. The district was separated from O'.d
Kilpatrick, which bounds the parish on the west, in the year 1649.

DUMFRIES-SHIRE.
TniS is a largo and important shire in the south of Scotland, bounded on the east by the counties of Roxburgh and Selkirk, on the
north-weBt by Ayrshire, on the south-west by the stewiirtry (or county) of Kirkcudbright, and on the north by the counties of Lanark,
Peebles, and part of Selkirk; its south and south-eastern boundary is washed by the Solway Firth, and its south-eastern base is Bkirled
by Roxburghshire and the English county of Cumberland. The length of the county, from north-west to south east, is nearly fifty-five
miles, and ite extreme breadth, from the south to where it touches Peebles hire on the north, is nearly thirty miles. According to the
latest and best surveys it cml>ract>B an area of 1,103 square miles, or 705,910 statute acres of land. In size Dumfries is classed KB the
eighth aud iu population as the thirteenth Scotch county.
Early History. — At the epoch of tho Roman invasion under Agricola, in the year 80, this part of Scotland was inhabited by a race
called the Setgova, who spread themselves as far as tho banks of the river Dee, in Galloway. These people continued independent till
the year 875, when they were overpowered by the Northumbrian Saxons, who retained the ascendancy for two centuries. During the
lapse of tliis timr*, h >wevcr, immense swarms of adventurers from Ireland and Cautyre effected a settlemeut, and from these
intermixtures sprung the Picts. who progressively acquired the paramount sway. At this period Dumfrica-shire is understood to have
formed part of Cambria, which district Edgar bequeathed to his youngest brother David, who encouraged the cupidity of many opuleut
Auglo-Normao barons, and the country was then divided into extensive baronies. The almost interminable border warfare was a
frightful calamity to the inhabitants of Dumfries-shire and Cumberland, who for centuries were subjected to all tho horrors attendant
upon barbarous incursions and reckless feudal hostility. When the civil war broke oat under Charles I., the common people entered
heartily into the covenant, aud tho shire was disturbed by the exertions made by loyal noblemen aud gentlemen iu quelling the
insurrection. Attachment to the house of Stuart ruined several of the great families; and humbler causes have conspired to
extiuquish many names of great local interest. The Maxwells were completely ruined by the attainder of the Earl of Nithsdale, in
1715. The Douglases of Queensberry and the Johnstons of Auuaudnle have merged iu other families, aud out of the general wreck the
noble house of Buccleuch has risen to the greatest prosperity and influence of any family in the South of Scotland. From being thus so
frequently subjected to the horrors of early invasion and predatory warfare, aud being so partitioned into baronies, the shire exhibits, even
to this day, the remains of somo very important castles aud places of security.
Soil and Surface, Produce, Manufactures, &c. — Tho lower parts of Dumfries-shire are basol with brown, red, yellow or whito
Baudsione, with dips generally to the Solway ; a considerable body of lime-ttono also lies iu this quarter, and beds of ironstone are
occasionally fouud to accompany the other strata. Coal prevails in great plenty in tho upper portions of Nithsdale and lower parts of
Eskdttle, the two extreme points of the county. The liiuosioue of the shire hus beau of groat value iu improving the lauds; marl likewise
abounds in various tract*, and of freestone aud whiustono there is e sufficiency iu all directions ; marblo is also procured for different
useful and ornamental purposes, aud near the northern confines of the county, at Waulockhead, thero are inexhaustible miues of lend.
As in most districts iu the south of Scotland, thcro is a gonoral mixture of arable and pasture laud. The soil is of great variety, that iu
the south being a light covering over a rocky and gravelly subsoil J, itrJducing thin crops ; but in the north, where the subsoil is peaty,
vegetation is rank. This county is famed for agriculture, its capacities in this respect being highly developed. The land is well tilled and
drained, strongly fenced, and produces good crops of oats, potatoes, turnips aud hay. About 210,130 acres are under cultivation. Though
changeable aud moist, the climate is upon the whole mild aud salubrious.
The following are the principal eminences in Dumfries-shire, with their altitude above the level of the sea :

In Annandale the improvement iu the breed of cattle has been most apparent; at the Highland Society's meeting some of the
choicest specimens of the pure breed of Galloway cows, heifers and bullocks are exhibited. The number of oxen, sheep aud pigs nurtured
iu this county is invariably mere than adequate to the demands of its population ; and exportation, therefore, of the excess product takes
place; and the same may be observed of corn, wool, hides, aud skius. The condition of the couuty is represented as having greatly
improved within the last sixty years, and at present its affairs may bo considered iu as prosperous a state as those of any other district of
Scotland. Dumfries-shire cauuot be ranked as a manufacturing county ; the principal branches undor this head are the manufacture of
hosiery goods and tweeds, the chief seat of these being its capital. There are also distilleries, agricultural implemeut works, dyoworks
tanneries, &c. This county is also noted for bacon curing, a large number of carcases of pork being cured auuually.
Rivers, &c. — The chief, indeed the only rivers of consequence, are the Nitb, the Annan, and tho Esk. From those streams the prin-
cipal divisions of the county obtain their names ; from each of these greater divisions diverge vales, which likewise have denominations
taken from the waters that are poured through them, such as Moff.itdale, Dryfesdate, and Ewesdulc. The Nith, sixty miles in length,
rises in the eastern bills of Ayrshire, enters Nithsdale by the foot of Carsoucoue bill, in the parish of Kirkcouuel, and descends iuto the
valley of Sanquhar; having forced its way through the hills which surround this valley, it receives the Crawick water from the north, and
the Eucbau from tho south. The river Cairn, which forms the western boundary of the couuty, unites its stroum with the Nith a little
above Dumfries, a short distance southward from which the latter river empties itself into the Solway Firth. Near to Jorborough Castle,
on the banks of the river Cairn, are to be seen thoso earthen mounds called " Bow-butts," where the barons of Glcneairn, with their
vaBsals, used to practise archery. The river Annan, the length of which is forty miles, takes its rise in the mountains above Moffat, and
runs through the flat part of Annandale for upwards of twenty-three miles ; in this course it receives the Evan and the Moflat waters and
the Wamphrey stream, which irrigates a pleu8ant[valley of that name. Parsing Johnstone, some other tributary rivulets increase its
volume ; at Lochmabon it is enlarged by the Ae, and a little lower by the Dryfe, which courses through the vale of Dryfesdale, considered
the termination of the vale of Annan. The higber part of Eskdalc, for nearly twenty miles, is mountainous. The Esk, thirty-five miles
long, in its progress through the district is joined by the Black Esk, the Maggot, the Ewes, aud the Waucbope. After reaching Broomholm
the river traverses a flat country, and apart of Cumberland, before it reaches the Solway Firth; during this portion of its course it
receives the Liddal from Roxburghshire, and the Line water from the county of Cumberland ; the entire length of its rnce is about tbirty-
olghi miles, thirty of which are in the shire of Dumfries. The Solway differs very materially from other estuaries receiving iu Scotland
the appellation of " Firths1;'' its watei'3 are shallow, and have long, sandy reaches at the ebbing of the tide. Tho ebbs and flows of the
Solway are proverbial for the rapidity of their action, and that is particularly the case during the Bpring tides and the prevalence of gales
from the south-west, aud borderers, though well mounted, have, in numerous melancholy instances, been overwhelmed and drowned when
returning from the Cumberland fairs, in crossing the bed of this estuary — even the most experienced persons are liable to be overtakeu
by the tides when they have the beat expectation of fording it iu safety. The principal lines of Railway now in operation are the Glasgow
and South- Western aud the Caledonian, with their branches.
Divisions, Representations, &c. — The whole county is now popularly apportioned into three districts, namely— Eskdale on the
east, almost the whole of which belongs to the noble family of Buccleuch ; Annandale in the middle, and Nithsdale ou the west. It is
ascertained that Dumfries-shire was placed under the government of a sheriff in the thirteenth century, at which period it included the
stewartry of Kirkcudbright. The district of Aunaudale, however, continued to be a stewartry from the period whon it merged iu the
Crown by the accession of Bruce, till the abolition of the heritable jurisdiction. Up to tho era of the Reformation, Dumfries-shiro
formed part of the extensive diocese of Glasgow, and was divided into the two deaneries of Nithsdale and Annandale; it now possesses
forty-four parishes, which are divided into five presbyteries and one synod. There are four royal burghs in the county — Dumfries,
Annan, Sanquhar, aud Lochmabon ; and six burghs of barony— Moffat, Lockerbie, Langholm, Ecclefechan, Thornhill, and Moniaive.
The shire at large sends one member to Parliament, and the royal burghs before named join with Kirkcudbright in returning another
representative. The present member for the county is Sir Robert Jardine, Bart, of Castlemilk. Tho parliamentary constituency for
1887-88 numbered 9,341. The lord lieutenant is the Duke of Buccleuch, k.t. According to the censuB returns for 1871, the population of
the county was 74.H08, and by those of 1881, 76,140. The valuation of the shire was iu 1887-88, including royal and parliamentary burghs,
but exclusive of railways, 4556,771, and of railways, 460,754.

ANNAN,
BRIDEKIRK, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS,
ANNAN, the capital of the district of Annandale and of its parish,
is an ancient Royal burgh, 73 miles s. of Edinburgh, 87 s.e. of
Glasgow, 48N.E.of Kirkcudbright, 27 s, of Moffat, 16 s.e. of Dumfries,
and 6 from Ecclefechan, situated on the east or left bank of the river
Annan, rather more than a mile above its influx into the Solway
Firth, and upon the Glasgow and South-Western and Caledonian
railways, on which lines there are stations. The namo is derived
from that of the river, whose appellation is traced to the Celtic
word An', signifying simply water. It is a town of considerable
antiquity, and is one of tbe most ancient burghs in Scotland. Annan
was a Roman station, and the Vcromnui of tho geography of Ravenna.
It seems to have been held by the Britons after the departure of the
Romans till they were subdued by the Saxons of the Northumbrian
kingdom, when it came to tho Scotch. It aftorwards became a
principal port, and was granted, with the territory of Annandale and
the port of Lochmaben, to the ancestors of Robert Bruce, by some
of whom a castle was erected, which was once occupied as a church,
but afterwards went to ruin, and the original wall formed part of
the gaol and the old town hall. Upon the deatli of David II., in 1371,
this castle, Lochmaben, and the lordship of Annandale, came to
Thomas Randolph, Earl of Murray, and went with his sister Agues
to the Dnnbars, Earls of March; after their forfeiture it went t>
the Douglases, who lost it by similar conduct ; and then, having
come to Alexander, Duke of Albauy, he, for rebellion against his
brother, King James III., and plundering the fair of Lochmaben, in
14S4, also forfeited it. Since that period it continued in the hands
of tlie King, and became the great key to tho western border.
By the accession oftlie Bruce family to the throne it became a
royal burgh. The existing charter was granted by James VI. of
Scotland, and is dated July 10th, lClii; it confirms previous charters,
and particularly recites one conferred by James V., dated
1st of March, 1538, which stated that Annan had with
other towns been burned and destroyed by sieges and the
iuroads of the Euglish, particularly iii 1298, when t'ley
entered Annandale and burned the town with its churches.
The burgh is governed by a provost, three bailies, and fifteen coun-
cillors, a treasurer, a dean of guild, and town clerk. It unites with
Dumfries, Saummhar, Lochmaben, and Kirkcudbright in returning
one member to Parliament. The port or harbour of Annan is free,
and vessels of 250 tons can come within half a mile of the town, but
vessels of much larger burthen can enter the river at its confluence
with the Solway, distant little more than a mile from the town ; at
this place arc wooden wharves or jetties. Vessels generally make
the passage between Annan and Liverpool within 12 hours, that is,
in one tide only, from harbour to harbour. The convenience
afforded by the rapidity of communication with Liverpool has
greatly increased the trade, aud a considerable quantity of bacon, I
grain, live stock, aud other commodities are conveyed to and from I
tho Liverpool market. Among the other brunches of trade are!
those of tanning and bacon curing, also a large bone grinding mill,
owned by Messrs. T. & G. Tweedie ; these works give employment
to a number of hands ; there is also a distillery situated about one
mile north of the town. lu 1879 a working men's reading and
recreation room and temperance coffee palace was opened by the
Marchioness of Queeusberry, who was also the promoter. Branches
of the Commercial Bank of Scotland, Limited, the British Lin en
Company, and the Bank of Scotland, are settled here ; there is also
a bank for savings. Limestone aud freestone are abundant in many
parts of the parish, which has been long famed for tho superior
quality o£- the potatoes cultivated within it. Palmer's Nurseries,
now of world-wide repute, are situated just outside the town, and
cover more than 120 acres.
Annan of late years has been much improved by new streets and
buildings, and now possesses a very handsome town hall, built on
the site of the old one in High street, at a cost of upwards of £4,0G0.
The old bridge, consisting of five arches, was removed in 1826, and
a neat and substantial one erected on its site, towards which a
grant of £3,000 was obtained from Government, and the remainder
supplied by tho county. On the west are the town hali and market
place, and at the east end of the town is a fine church, built of
stone, with a tower and spire. A Free church, United Presbyterian,
Episcopal, Independent, and Roman Catholic chapels are the other
places of worship. The Board schools, and several private ones, are
well conducted ; but the principal educational establishment is a
classical academy, which was erected in 1820. In it is taught most
of the elegant and all the useful branches of education, and the pre-
ceptors consist of classical and other masters, and teachers in the
several branches. Annan is proud of being the birthplace of the
Rev. Edward Irving, founder of that sect of Christians called
Irvingites, aud Hugh Clappertou, the African traveller. The town
is now plentifully supplied with wator. The reservoir, in which the
water for the use of the town is stored, is situated on tlie farm of
Purdoinstown, iu the parish of Middlebie, situated about 7?a miles
from Annan. It has a capacity of holding 27,000,000 gallons. The
filter bed and supply tank is behind Landheads toll bar, 2 miles from
the town, and is able to pass 150,000 gallons per day. The ceremony
of opening tlie waterworks was performed by Lady Augusta Noel,
wife of Ernest Noel, Esq., then M.P. for tlie Dumfries district of
burghs, ou July 21st, 1881. The total cost was about. £12,000,
Messrs. Brebuer & Fleming, Edinburgh, were the contractors.
An excellent newspaper, the Annandale Observer, is published
every Friday, of which Messrs. William Cuthbertson & Son, High
street, are the proprietors. The market is held on Friday, at which,
during the season, large quantities of pork are sold. There are also
two cattle marts. Fairs are held ou the fust Friday iu May, the first
Friday in August, and the third Friday in October. The acreage of
tho parish is 10,915, with a population iu 1S81 of 5,516, tho town con-
taining 3,360 of that number,
Bridekirk is a village, 3 miles n. of Auuau, situated on tbe west
bank of the Annan river. The proprietor was the late Mrs. General
Dirom, through whose interest it was erected into a quoad sacra
parish in May, 1836, and the same lady built the church in 1835. The
remains of Bride-Kirk are in this parish. Population iu 1881, 702,

CAER.LAVEROCK PARISH,
INCLUDING THE VILLAGES OF BANKEND, KELTON, GLENCAPLE QUAY, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
THE parish of Caerlaverock occupies a sort of peninsula formed
by the Solway Firth, the river Nith, and Locliar water. The
magnificent ruin of Caerlaverock Castle Btands ou a level plain,
between eight and nine miles from Dumfries. It is an ancient
possession of the Maxwells, once a powerful family in this part of
Scotland, and wardens of the western Marches. It was besieged
and captured by Edward I. in 13U0, aud by Cromwell in 1651. After
this it ceased to be a tenable fortress, and fell into decay. It now
presents a ruin massive and picturesque, emineuUy worthy the
notice of the tourist. Lord Hcrries is the owner of nearly the whole
parish. Eirkconnell here is the rosidence of Sir James Anderson,
Knight, who cotnmauded the " Groat Eastorn " when she success-
fully recovered the lost ends of the Atlantic cable. The places of
worship comprise two churches— one of the Establishmeut at Caer-
laverock, and oue 'of tho Free Church, at Glencaple Quay. Thore
are throe endowed schools in the pariah. The population of Caer-
laverock parish was in 1881, 1,046.
Bankend is a clean, pleasant village, about seven miles from
Dumfries, containing a parochial and grammar school, which ia also
a boarding academy.
Glencaple Quay, on tho banks of the Nith, in this parish, Is a
clean, neat little village, where in former times numbers of coasting
traders discharged aud took in their cargoes for various parts of
the United Kingdom, and passengers from Liverpool usually landed
here. It is now chiefly used as a bathing place, to which it ia
extensively resorted in summertime. Kelton is likewise a small
seaport village ou the Nith.

ou which line there is a station at the village. The parish, which
is about four miles in length by three in breadth, containing 9,466
acres, is bounded on the north-east by the river Annan, and on the
south by the Solway Firth. It is a flat, fertile and well cultivated
district, and is now well enclosed. The name is derived from the
British words Cum-bcr-tree, signifying the hamlet at the short
Talley, and is sufficiently descriptive of the local situation of the
village. About a mile south-east of Cummertrees is Powfoot, a
fishing hamlet, Bitnated on the shore of the Solway. Population of
the parish in 1881, 1,094.

Dalton is a parish and small village between 3 and 4 miles n.n.w,
from Cummertrees, and about 2 n. from Ruthwell station. The parish,
which now comprehends the two ancient ones of Meikle Dalton and
Little Dalton, Is four milea in length by three iu breadth, with about
6,886 acres. Its general appearance is that of high cultivation,
which has been extended over once unprofitable moors and com-
mons. In the churchyard are several ancient tombstones to the
memory of the Ross family, descendants of the ennobled house of
Ross of Halkhead, who were long resident in this parish. About a
mile from the village is Dormont House, beautifully situated within a
deer park on the banks of the Annan, the seat of W. F. Carruthers,
Esq. Cahrutherstown is a small village in this parish. Population
of the parish in 1881, 579.
Mousewald is a paritih and village-the latter abont 6 miles s.e. from
Dumfries, lying between that town and Annan. The kirk, which is

introduced a gravitation supply of water, and presented it to the
inhabitants. Acreage, 5,889. Population in 1881, 558.
Ruthwell is a parish and village — the latter about S miles n.w.
from Cummertrees and 2 miles from Ruthwell station, close to
which is the new post office, erected in 1836, which is the postal
centre of a wide district. This place is a barony, and is privileged
to hold markets and fairs, but it is long since the inhabitants availed
themselves of these rights. It was in early days celebrated for the
manufacture of salt ; but this art has not been practised for some
time. Near the shore is the brow, well and hamlet, where Burns
spent several of the last weeks of his existence. The kirk and
manse of Ruth well stand about a quarter of a mile from that
village. In 18S7 the ancient Runic monument, so dear to anti-
quarians, which stood in the manse grou uda,was removed therefrom,

church, admission to which is at all times free. The parochial
school is at Clarencefield. About a mile from Ruthwell, in the
parish of Mousewald, is Mount Kedar, where stands a monument
erected to the memory of the Rev. Henry Duncan, d.d., late minister
of Ruthwell. The memorial, which is of stone, consists of an arched
base and pyramid, forty feet in height ; on the base an inscription
states that he was tho founder of the Bystem of savings banks, and
was born in 1774, and died in 1846, after being minister of Ruthwell
parish for forty-four years, when he closed in communion with the
Free Church of Scotland. A Free church and school house are
situated here. About a mile from the station is Comlongon Castle,
an ancient border keep, and a modern mansion, one of the seats of

DORNOCK, GRAITNEY (or GRETNA),
WITH SPRINGFIELD, KIRKPATRICK-FLEMING, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
DORNOCK is a parish and village— the latter a email one, in tho
district of Annandale, Dumfries-shire, 84 miles s. of Edin-
burgh, 18 s. of Langholm, 17 s.e. of Dumfries, 12 s.e. of Lockerbie,
7 s. of Ecclefechan, and 2% e. of Annan ; situated on the high road
from the latter town to Carlisle, and about a quarter of a mile from
the shore of the Solway Firth, where there is good sea bathiug. Tho
parish, which is about two miles and a half square, contains about
4 626 acres, and is washed on its southern part by the Solway. An
ancient erection, called Stapleton Tower, stands on the estate of
Stapleton, in this parish. It is now the summer residence of John
A. Critchley, Esq. Robgill Tower, formerly belonging to the Irvings,
of Robgill, stands in the same parish, and with the lands attached
are now possessed by Robert Paterson, Esq. At a short distance
from the village there are the remains of a Roman military road and
Druidical circle, or temple. On what was formerly a moor in the
parish, a battle is traditionally said to have been fought between
the English and Scotch, in which the former were defeated and
their two commanders slain. Two stones in Dornock churchyard,
each GYz feet long and two broad, and raised iu the middle like a
coffin, mark the place of their reported interment. On these tombs
hieroglyphics are cut, which have hitherto puzzled the antiquarian.
The kirk and the parochial school are in the village. Besides an
Established church there are two parochial schools iu the parish.
The population of the parish was in 1881, 814.
Graitney (more popularly called Gretna), is a parish in the south
part ot the county, lying on the west side of the small river Sark.
The present parish, the acreage of which is about 7,863, compre-
hends the old parishes of Gretna and Rodkirk, which were united
in 1609. The village of Gretna, or Gretna Green, is situated en tho
road from Annan to Carlisle, by Longtoo, eight miles and a half
from the former, and nine miles and a half from the latter town,
and is the first stage on entering Scotland from England. The
Glasgow and South Western and Caledonian Railways pass through
the parish, and there is a station contiguous to the village. This
place was loDg noted for the celebration of clandestine marriages.
Any person could perform the ceremony, which merely amounted
to a declaration, before witnesses, that the parties were man and
wife, such an acknowledgment being sufficient to constitute a valid
marriage in Scotland. By a certificate being nubscribod by the
officiating priest and witnesses the union became quite indissoluble.
, The fee charged varied according to circumstances and the means
J of the party— from half a guinea to .£40, and even £50 has been paid.
\ Bills were brought into the House of LordB to alter the law of Scot-
; tish marriages, and more especially the Gretna Greeu contracts,
j but they were not carried further than to require that if the parties
! beloug to any other country, one of them must have resided seven
j days in the kingdom of Scotland before they can be so joined
I together. The first of these convenient priests was a fisherman
| named Coulthard. He kept a ferry boat.betore any high roads were
1 made through the country. The following was the form of the mar-
i riage certificate, which, if required, was furnished: —
" KINGDOM OF SCOTLAND, COUNTY OF DUMFRIES,
PARISH OF GRETNA."
I " These are to certify to all whom these presents may come, that
| A.B., from the parish of , in the county of , and CD.,
from the parish of , in the county of , being now
here present, and having declared themselves single persons, were
this day married after the manner of the laws of the Church of
England, and agreeable to the laws of Scotland.
" As witueBS our hands at Gretna Hall, &c, &c."
About a quarter of a mile from Gretna is the village of Spring-
field, which participated in this matrimonial trade. This village,
as also that of Gretna, belongs to the Maxwell family. At Sarkfoot,
about a mile from the latter village, is good bathing ground. About
two miles west from Gretna is the small village of Rigs, where
there is a dissenting chapel. Population of the parish in 1881, 1,212.
The parish of Kirkpatrick-Fleming, interesting in Scottish
legend and song, is bounded on the east by Graitney. The kirk and
parochial school, which stand at the southern end of the parish, are
about three miles from Gretna. In the cliurcbyard are several
ancient tombstones, amongst others a sarcophagus, bearing a Latin
inscription and eight shields of arms, to the memory oi William
Coulthard, chief of his name, who was resident in the parish till
near the end of last century. About one mile from the village is
Moss Kuowe, the residence of William Graham, Esq., a very fine
and stately mansion. Lime and freestone abound iu tbis district, in
which are likewise several mineral springs, possessing medicinal
properties similar to those of Hartfeli spa, near Moffat. The Cale-
donian Railway, which runs through the village, has a station here.
Population iu 1881, 1,461 acreage, 11,529,

DUMFRIES-SHIRE
SLATER'S
DUMFRIES,
MAXWELLTOWN, TERREGLES, TROQUEER, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
T\UMFRIES, the capital of its county aud parish, a royal bur^h,
±J the seat of the synod and preBbyfcery of Dumfries, is 338
miles from London (hy thy route uf Manchester), 71 s. of Edinburgh,
72 a.E. of Glasgow, J8J s. by w. of Aberdeen, 150 s.B. of Avr, 32 N.W.
of Carlisle (by railway), 15 n.s.w. of Annan, and 8 s.w. of Loch-
nuiben. It is .situated on the Glasgow and South-Wcstcrn Railway,
and thare is a station for the lino about a quarter of a mile from
the town, of which the Caledonian Railway Company have a
portion. _ The branch of this company joins tho main line at
Lockerbie. Dumfries, which may bo considered as the metropolis
of tho south-west quarter of Scotland, is seated on the left hank of
the river Nith, about nine miles abave its confluence with the
Solway Firth, and is navigable for vessels of light tonnage, the tide
flowing as high as the old bridge. There exists no record whereby
to ascertain the date when the town was founded, or the etymology
of its name. Drium-a-frish— Dun-fries— Dnnnfries and "Dumfries"
have successively been its appellation — Dun, a castle, and fries,
shrubs, is a plausible compound for the original name. Under
whatever circumstances Dumfries was founded, it was undoubtedly
a place of considerable size Jong before the days of William the
Lion, and in his reign it was erected into a royal burgh. The site
of this Queen of Nitbsdale is singularly picturesque, stretching
along the hank of the Nith at au elevation sufficient to command
a rich prospect terminating at the distance of a few miles in a
chain of lofty hills, either cultivated or umbrageous to their
summits. There aro so many attractions in and around Dumfries
that the gentry of tho neighbouring counties resort to it, imparting
vivacity and all the delights of good society. The ancient monas-
tery of Greyfriars, in this town, was the scene of a remarkable
tragedy about the middle of the fourteenth century ; this event was
connected with the assassination of the Red Corny u (a powerful
chieftain who formerly held the Regency of Scotland) hy Robert the
Bruce, attended by Khkpatriok and Lindsay, two of Bruce's
adherents.
Amongst the improvements of modern times may bo named the
erection of a suite of assembly rooms, market places, the widening
of Rank street, and lighting the town with gas; a spacious quay
has been constructed aloug the side of the town; and a line Doric
column raised by the county of Dumfries, to the memory of Charles,
Duke uf Queensbcrry, who died in 1778, adorns the centre of the
burgh. A very handsome statue of the poet Burns has been placed
iu Church plaee, close to Greyfriars church, which was unveiled by
Lord Rosebery on the 6th April, 1882, amid great rejoicings. The
figure, which is cut iu Sicilian marble, and was executed at Carrara,
from a model designed and prepared by Mrs. D. O. Hill, is
represented in a position between sitting and standing, tho bead
being slightly turned towards tho right shoulder. A daisy is held
between the fingor and thumb of the left hand, the right hand
being hidden beneath the folds of a shepherd's plaid, which is
carelessly thrown over the shoulder. The statue, which was defrayed
by subscription, is placed on a plain pedestal of dark grey granite,
at a height of about nine feet from Ihe ground. A Corn Exchauge
■was opened on the 14th March, 1877, at Whitesands, by the firm of
Messrs. Fothoringham and Wallace, seed merchants. The Court
House and County Buildiugs are large elegent erections, in Buccleuch
street. The old Gaol, which joins the Court House, has been sold
and a new one erected in Maxwelltowu for the joint use of Dumfries-
shire, Kirkcudbrightshire andWigtonshire. The building, which is
large and handsome, was opened August 15th, 18S3. Messrs. J.
Crackstou & Son, Dumfries, were the contractors. On tho site of the
old gaol in Buccleuch street, a handsome post office was completed
and opened for business in tho early part of this year (1889). It is of
the celebrated Dumfries-shire red stone, from designs supplied by
the architect to H. M. postal authorities, Edinburgh. There is
on an elevated site a new infirmary, a noble and spacious building,
•which is an ornament to the town. Circuit courts of justiciary are
held in April and September for Dumfries-shire and the stewartry of
Kirkcudbright andWigtonshire; there are also ordinary and small
debt, sheriff's and justiciary burgh courts. The station of the Glas-
gow and South-Western Railway is an important erection, giving
animation to tho south-eastern suburb of the town. The Theatre is
a neat building of stone, with a projecting portico; the interior is
tastefully deoorated. It was hero that Kean first emerged from
obscurity to fame, and he never forget the early patronage of the
denizens of Dumfries.
An important line of railway from Dumfries now goes through
Castle Douglas, Gatehouse, Newton-Stewart, to Stranraer and
Portpatrick, thence by steamer to the coast of Ireland, which is but
twenty-one miles distant from the last-named town. The principal
imports are timber, hemp, tallow, coal, slato, iron and wine; tho
exports consist of wheat, barley, oat3, potatoes, wool and freestone,
iho latter being worked at Locharbriggs, threo miles distant from |
tho town. The manufacture of woollen tweed is very extensively
carried on here, and next in importance is the iron trade, the
Dumfries Iron Works, of which Mr. James B. A. M'Kiimel, is pro-
prietor, being one of the largest structures of its kind in the south
of Scotland. The making of agricultural implements is the
staple trade at these works, although steam boilers, railway
contractors' wagon wheels, cranes, Ac, are only a frnv among other
articles manufactured. Considerable business is also done in the
hosiery trade, brewing, tanning, tiie manufacture of glue, &c.
Dumfries was for many years the leading market for hareskins in
Scotland, and even regulated tho price of home fur in England ; and
it is still looked to as the arbiter of prices. Several branch banking
companies afford facilities for the monetary transactions of the town. '
The principal hotels are the King's Arms, the Station, Tho Queens-
berry Arms, and lastly the Globe, where the famous bard, Burns, spent
many of his leisure hours, and many relics of him are to bo seen at
this hotel, which was, and is still, called Burns' Houff. Two
newspapers are issued weekly, viz. :— the Dumfries and Galloway
Courier and Herald, and tho Dumfries and Qalloway Standard and
Advertiser, both of which are excellent papors, and have a very large I
circulation.

The municipal government of the burgh is vestod in a provost,
threo bailies, a dean of guild, a treasurer, a town clerk, and nineteen
councillors. The craftsmen wore formerly divided into seven eor-
porations, with each a deacon chosen from their respective trades,
who elected one of Choir own uuuiher to bo convenor, and another
io he general bux-m ister, all uf whom formed what was termed a
grand committee of tho seven trades; these distinctions, however (for
distinctions of considerable importance they were in former times),
were virtually abolished by the Reform Bill; some of tho trades
possessed considerable property, which has since been publicly sold,
aud the proceeds equitably divided among the respective parties.
Dumfries unites with Annan, Lochm then, Sanquhar and Kirkcud-
bright, iu returning one member l<> Parliament. Tho present
member is Robt. T. Reid, Esq., q.c. The numerous nursery grounds
around tho town are both useful and ornamental i,o the suburbs.
The great desideratum of a copious supply of pure water has been
attained, and the inhabitants have au abuudauco brought from
ample sources, about five mites from the town.
The places of worship, including Maxwelltown, comprise three
churches of the Establishment, four of the Freo church,
several United Presbyterian, an Episcopal, a Congregational,
a Wesley au, a Baptist, a Catholic Apostolic, and Roman
Catholic Cathedral. The latter is a very large and
handsome edifice, situated in Sbakspere street, and has
schools in connection. St. Michael's, or the mother church,
claims peculiar notice on account of its cemetery, which contains
numerous elegant and curious monuments. The most attractive
is the lino mausoleum raised to tho muiuory of the Scottish bard,
Burns; the design for tho mausoleum was by F. Hunt, Esq.,
of Loudon, aud TurnerelU modelled the sculpture. By toe
erection of this monument, it may be said that Scotlaud lias
repaid the debt so long duo to tho memory of him whoso natural
genius his countrymen may well he proud. Burns died at
Dumfries on theUlst of July, 17915, aged 37 years, and his remains were
deposited in the churchyard of Saint Michael. On January S5lh,
1S59, the centenary of the birth of iho great Scotch poet, a series of
banquets, entertainments, &o. was held iu Edinburgh, Glasgow, and
in this as well as most other towns both in Scotland and England ;
poems were written in his honour, aud at the Crystal Palace,
Sydenham, where a grand festival took place, a prize poem (being
tho best of 700 sent for approval) was recited. The last surviving
sun of tho great poet — who had reached the mature age of 81— was
interred in the same vault as his father on Feb. 23th, 1872. This church-
yard has been useil as a place of burial for more than seven hundred
years, aud contains not a few monuments that are fitted to attract,
attention, on account of their age as well as for other reasons.
Conspicuous may be noticed the ruined monument of Provost
Corsane, who had worn the badges of civic authority, as chief
magistrate, bailie, and common councillor for forty-five years ; also
the magnificent tomb of Francis Irving, who was M.P. for the burgh
in 1617. Near the gate lies the dust of Bailie Paterson, to whom tho
Dumfries Academy is indebted for its educational endowments. Iu
an enclosure, surrounded by iron rails, we read : " In this cemetery,
and chiefly within this enclosure, lie the mortal remains of more
than 420 inhabitants of Dumfries, who wore suddenly swept away by
the memorable invasion of Asiatic cholera, A.D. 1832. That terrific
pestilence entered the town on tho 15th September, and remained
lill 27th November, during which time it seized at least 900 indivi-
duals, of whom 44 died iu one day, aud no more thau 415 were
reported recovered. That the benefit of this solemn warning might
not be lost to posterity, this monument was erected from collections
made in several churches in this town." Tho tombstones of William
Grierson, William Welsh, and James Kirk, the three martyrs who
suffered death on the Whitesands — the two former on Jauuury 2nd,
1667, and the latter June 1685 — are to be soeu in the churchyard.
Towering high nbove these lowly tombstones stands a pyramid of
granite, erected in 1834 to show the reverence which is cherished iu
modern times for these aud the rest of the noble army of tho
Nitbsdale martyrs. The mausoleum and tho profusion of funeral
sculpture which adoru tho cemetery are so attractive that it is a
pity free ingress is not at all times permitted. The feo (threepence
each to the mausoleum) doubtless prevents many a stranger from
inspecting these beautiful memorials to the dead. The
tasteful church of St. Mary, on the north side of English street, is a
graceful ornamout to this approach of tho town and the cemetery
around it is gradually being enriched with finely-executed monu-
mental sculpture. St. John's Episcopal church is a fine Gothio
building, with tower and spire 120 feet high, built from a design by
Mr. W. Slater aud Mr. R. H. Carpenter, Regent street, London, the
foundation stone of which was laid iu August, 1867 ; it is in full
communion with tho Scottish Episcopal church.
Charitable, Educational, and Scientific Institutions.— The
Infirmary was founded in 1776, at a period when very few charities
of a similar nature were iu Britain ; and this is still the only one
iu the South of Scotland. Medical advice and medicine are
gratuitously afforded to every applicant who is an object of charity.
It is supported by annual subscriptions, legacies, douations, bene-
factions, &C, and is under the management of governors. There is
also the Crichtou Royal Institution, endowed by the late James
Crichton, Esq., of Friar's Carse, and incorporated by Act of Parlia-
ment, dated 3rd July, 1840, as a hospital for the insane and a home
for mental and nervous invalids of the higher and middle classes.
The grounds, 300 acres in extent, are pleasantly situated on an ele-
vation overlooking the valley of the Nith, and have a south-westeru
aspect and au extensive prospect, unequalled iu the South of Scot-
land for variety and beauty, affording scope for extended exercise
aud recreation. A large building within the grounds, called the
second House of the Institution, is devoted chiefly to the care and
treatment of the pauper iuuatics of the district ; the number of
patients accommodated being about 550. The Poor's Hospital is
for the purpose of supporting aged and indigent poor and destitute
children, who are taught to read and write. It is governed by the
magistrates, town council) &c, and is supported by a part of the

collections from the church (loots, numerous benefactions, dona-
tions, and annual subscriptions. It was founded in 1753, by the
Messrs. J. & W. Muirhead, merchants, Dumfries is not belaud
other towns in its support of numerous religious and educational
societies— both an infant and an industrial school are amongst tho
latter institutions, The commodious cottages or almshouses founded
by tho benovolenco of Mrs. Carruthers, are an interesting memorial
of her philanthropy. Tho Dumfries Academy, established under
its prescut designation in 1602, willi a complete stall' of masters,
superseded two institutions— tho Grammar school and tho Com-
mercial school, which till then existed in separate parts of tho town.
Tho dale of tho foundation of these schools is unknown, but mention
is made of the Grammar school in the session of clerk's records for
109S. In 1722 the masters In both schools were endowed by Bailie
Paterson, of Dumfries, who bequeathed 15,(JU0 merits t;» the magis-
trates and ministers of Dumfries for the benefit of tho teachers;
and in the following year by John Raining, of Norwich, to the
extent ox jBSOO. The Bell bnquesfr of £100 was left in 1789, tho
interest of which is Riven to the English master. The present
commodious and haudsomo structure was built mainly by private
subscription. For a few' years the subscribers took a sharo in the
management of the academy, but in 1814 it was handed over to the
town council, under whose liberal and enlightened patronage it
flourished til .August, 1S72, when, by tho Education Act.it was
transferred as ono of the higher class public schools to tho manage-
ment of the Dumfries Burgh School Board.
The Gentlemen's Club House, in Assembly street, was formerly
the old Assembly rooms, but is now in the possession of the Dum-
fries and Galloway Club. The Dumfries arid Maxwelltown Observa-
tory Society have erected, on Corberry Hill, on the Maxwelltown
side of tho river, an observatory, which is regarded as a highly
ornamental feature in one of the most unique brtlf-nrban, haif-eylvan
landscapes, and commands an extensive view of beautiful and varied
scenery ; tho cost, which exceeded one thousand guineas, was raised
in £5 shares. Tho plans were by Mr. Newall, architect, and the
building was completed in little more than twolve mouths. It
contains four Btories — the lower ono for tho use of the keeper, three
others for the accommodation of subscribers and strangers, which
are furnished with globes, mathematical instrumental newspapers
and periodicals; and the upper storey is set apart for a cainera-
obscura and prism. The grounds, which consist or more than half
an acre, are laid out with much taste, containing flowers and shrubs
of various kinds.
Tho market day is Wednesday. The two principal half yearly
markets take the name of the Candlemas and Road fairs. Besides
tho usual commodities that change hands at these periods, many
thousand head of cattle aro bought and sold, and vast quantities of
pork also rind purchasers in Dumfries from tho beginning of
December to tho cud of February. The fairs are hold on the first
Wednesday in February, tho third Wednesday in March, the third
Weduesday in April, the 26th Mayor the Wednesday after; the
third Wednesday iu June, the third Wednesday in July, the third
Wednesday in August, tho third Wednesday in October, and the
third Wedncsdiy ia November, for cuttle (all old style). The parish I
of Dumfries embraces an area of 10,032 statute acres, and in 1871
had a population of 14,811, and in 1SS1, 16,836, the royal burgh afc
the last-named period numbering, 15,759. The population of the
burghs of Dumfries aud Maxwelltown combined at the same tima
contained 20,326, and tho combinod parishes of Dumfries and
Troqueor (which includo the burgh of Maxwelltowu), 22,359.
Maxwelltown, formerly a village, in the parish of Troqueer, is
now a burgh of barony, in the stewnrtry of Kircudbright, and con-
nected with Dumfries by three bridges across the Nith. In no
instance has tho good effects of erecting a village into a burgh of
barony boon more conspicuous than in Maxwelltown. The charter
was obtained from the Crown iu 1810, aud since that time, from
being a poor village notorious for disorderly conduct, it has improved
iu value and extent of houses, and increased considerably in tho
number and respectability of its inhabitants; it is governed by a
provost, two bailies, and councillors. Among the trading establish-
ments arc two saw mills, two tweed factories, tho large dyoworks of
Messrs. T. Shortridgo aud Sou, and several good shops. Tho
churches here aro handsome and of modern erection. About a milo
along the Maxwelltown bank of the Nith, are situated tho ruins of
Linclnden Abbey. This ecclesiastical structure was built about
tho middle of tho twelfth century, by Uchtred, Lord of Galloway,
as a convent for Benedictine nuns. In this capacity it continued
till about tho closo of the fourteenth century, when it was
suppressed by Archibald tho Grim, Earl of Douglas, on account
it is alleged, of the irregularities of the inmates, and converted
by him into a collegiate church for the numerous dependents
of his family while they remained lords of Galloway. It existed
as a college for behoof of a provost and twelve bedesmen
till the Keformation, when Mr. Robert Douglas, an illegetiuiate
arm of Sir Robert Doupla*, of Drumlanrijr, who was provost of Liu-
cluden when that great change occurred, continued to enjoy the
benefice for forty years afterwards. Eventually the lands attached
were converted into a temporal lordship and bestowed upon tho
family of Nithsdalo. Afterwards the college became tho property of
the Nithsdale family, and here Lord Maxwell, in deliaiice of a
Government edict, caused mass to be celebrated soon after the
Reformation, ou the 24th December, 1585, and, as it has been said,
"the choral swell with which tho venerable walls rung on that
occasion was as the dying requiem of tho ancient faith," mass never
having been since said or sung in the house of Uchtred. In later days
it was a favourite resort of the poet Burn3, and while musing beside
its ruined walls he composed several of his pieces, the" Vision of
Liberty" among the number. The population of the burgh in 1871
was 4,239, and iu 1881, 4,567.
Troqueer is a parish iu the stcwartry of Kirkcudbright, lying ou
the river Nith, near its mouth, aud opposite to Dumfries. It is
bounded by Terregles on tho north, Lochrutton on the west, and
New Abbey on tho south, extending about seven miles and a half
in length, aud four and a half broad. The parish has an area of
11,075 statute acres, and in 1S71 contained a population of 5,402,
aud in 1881, 5,524. Terregles is also a parish situated near
to Dumfries, but in the county of Kirkcudbright. Population
iu 1881, 147.

DUNSCORE,
AULDGIRTH, HOLYWOOD, IRONGRAY, AND KIRKMAHOE.
DUNSCORE, a parish in the district of Nithsdale, is bounded by
Glencairn and Keirri on the north, and Holywood and Kirkcud-
brightshire on the south ; it is 12 miles in length, and ita breadth
varies from one to four miles, and contains about 14,815 acres. The
tills which surround it are healihy und good for pasture. The cele-
brated John Welsh, son-in-law to John Knox, was a native of
Dunscore. The land is arable on the banks of the NitL, which irrigates
its eastern part; it is also intersected by the Cairn. Sheep and cattle
are reared off these lands forthesouthuru markets ; and oats, barley,
■wheat, potatoes and turnips are produced in great quantities. The
parish church is about niua miles n.w. from Dumfries, and seven b.e.
from Moniaive ; there are also in the parish a Free church and a
United Presbyterian church. Robert Burns atone time held a farm
in this parish, near the Nith, named Ellisland, and it was while here
that he had an opportunity of eulogising the Clonden river, which
iB a continuation of the Cairn water. At this period he took charge
of a village library, instituted by his landlord, Robert Riddel, Esq.
About four miles n.e. from Dunscore is Auldgirth, a station on the
Glasgow and South-Western railway, and the postal centre for the
district. Population in 1881, 1,405.
Holywood is a village, in the parish of its name, and a station on
the Glasgow and South-Western railway, about three and a half miles
n. from Dumfries. The parish, which is bounded by Dunscore on the
north and west, extends for 10 miles along the right bank of the Nith,
its breadth being from two to three miles ; its acreage is about 8,805.
The district derives its narao from a sacred grove, to which, it is said,
the Druids resorted to perform their rites. The temple of these
pagans was succeeded by the cell of a hermit, which was subsequently
changed into a house for monks of the Promonstra tenses, in the
beginning of the twelfth century, and the ruins of an old abbey in the
churchyard are supposed to be the remains of that building. An
406
Irish recluse, named Coogal, seems to have been the founder, and
he bequeathed both to the cell and the abbey the name of Dercongal,
signifying " the Oakwood of Congal." The church, a neat erection
and much admired, stands iu a most delightful part of the country,
about three miles from Dumfries. In 1881 the parish contained a
population of 1,496.
Irongray, one of the most picturesque parishes in the south of
Scotland, is situated iu the stewartry of Kirkcudbright (the village
of Shawhead being about seven miles n.w. of Dumfries), and is
bounded oa the north by the river Cairn or Clouden, where it
separates it from the parish of Holywood, iu Dumfries-shire, on the
east by Terregles, on the west by Kirkpatrick-Durham and Urr, and
on the south by Locbrutton ; its surface is diversified and irregular,
and its outline nearly triangular, its area comprising 13,67o acres.
In the churchyard isa monument erected by Sir WalterScott,totbe
memory of Hulen Walker, the prototype of Jeanie Deans, the heroine
in the " Heart of Midlothian," who was a native of this parish, and
whose remains are interred here. The monument is of Craigleth
sandstone, and is in the form of a sarcophagus. Hi 1881, the parish
contained a population of 784.
Kirkmahoe is a parish, in the district of Nithsdale, bounded by
Closeburn, Kirkmichael, Tinwald, Dumfries, Holywood, Dunscore
and Keir; situate about four miles n. from Dumfries. From some
of the summits of its uplands a beautiful view is obtained of the
pretty valley of the Nith, fringed iu the distance by the Solway tide,
and in the far back ground by Crift'el and ihe Cumberland mountains.
The church is a handsome Gothic edifice. The lands of the parish
ar.e well cultivated, and there are several plantations. In this parish
are the hamlets of Kirkton, Duncow, and Dalswinton. Acreage
about 12,563; population in 1881, 1,250.

ECCLEFECHAN,
WITH THE VILLAGES OF EAGLESFIELD, KIRTLEBRIDGE, AND WATERBECK IN MIDDLEBIE, NEWTON, AND
NEIGHBOURHOODS.
ECCLEFECHAN is a considerable village, in the parish of Hoddam,
71 miles s. of Edinburgh, 76 s.e. of Glasgow, 20 n.w. by mil
from Carlisle, 16 e. of Dumfries, six N. of Annan, aud 1-1 from Lang-
liulin. lying in n fi.ua situation uo;ir tlie foot of Annandale, aud on the
road from Glasgow to Carlisle, within a mile of the station on the
Caledonian rail wny. The hind of Hoddam pariah is of the very best
quality, under a superior system of cultivation, and the district is
perhaps one of the most healthy and pleasant in the south of Scot-
land. The principal employment of the inhabitants is weaving
cotton goods for the Glasgow manufacturers, who have constantly a
demand for the labours of the loom, and which enables the operatives
to enjoy many comforts which they would otherwise be deprived of.
Ecclefcchan contains a few respectable shops, in which a variety of
trades is carried on. Fairs are held for cattle, &c. on tho Tuesday
after the 1Kb of June, and the Tuesday after the 20th October ; the
Duke of Buceleuch, as superior, claims certain customs for all stand-
ings aud for all cattle exposed for sale. A branch of the Royal Bank
o£ Scotland is established in the town. There is a parochial school
here, and the places of worship ;ire tho Established. Free, and United
Presbyterian churches. Ecclefcchan cao boast of being the birth-
place of Thomas Carlyle, renowned for his quaint but powerful
writings. Tho remains of the great philosopher were brought from
Loudon (where he died in the early part of 1881), and interred in tho
parish churchyard here. Within a short distance of the village are
the remains of a Roman camp, said to bo one of tho most complete
in Scotland. About two and a half miles from Ecclefechan is the
estate of Spfiukell, the property of Sir John Maxwell, but at present
the residenco of the Right Hon. tho Earl of Antrim. Tho parish of
Hoddam contains about 7,514 acres, and in 1S81 had a population of
1,548 inhabitants, that of Ecclefechan at the same period being 768.
Middlebie is a parish lying on the road between Langholm and
Ecclefechan; it is about seven miles in longth by four in breadth ;
acreage about 17,545. It abounds in red freestone, aud is valuable
; for its limo quarries, but much of the land is of rather poor quality.
The village, a small one, is about two miles from Ecclefechan, and
I about 12 from Langholm. There is an Established church and u
| parochial school.
| KiRTLEnniDGK and Ea&LE spiel n are small villages in tho above
] parish, the former three miles, and the latter two and a half miles
I from Ecclefechau. At Kirtlebridge has recently been built, with all
j modern conveniences, a first-class family and commercial hotel,
! and in tho immediate vicinity are the famous salmon and trout
; fishings of the Annan, the Esk, and tho Kirtle. There is also a
■ brick and tile works here. Kirtlebridge is a station on the Oale-
' donian Railway.
Waterbeck is a village also in tho parish of Middlebie, about
' three miles from Kirtlebridge station on the Caledonian railway,
■ and four miles from Ecclefechan on the road to Langholm. It is a
i pretty little rural place, and has been much improved by the late
i Mr. Robert Carlyle and his sous. It is notable for the large supply of
I wool, cured bacon, and cheese, which it sends annually to tho
I dilTereut markets. Here the United Presbyterians have a place of
; worship, built in the Gothic style of architecture, and there is a
l parochial school in the village. The population of Middlebie parish
in 18S1 was 1,927.

LANGHOLM,
AND THE PARISHES OF CANONBIE, ESKDALEMUIR, EWES, HALF-MORTON, WESTERKIRK, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
LANGHOLM is a thriving manufacturing town and burgh of
barony, in the parish of its name; 73 miles from Edinburgh, 80
s.w. from Glasgow, iJO E. by N. from Dumfries, the like distance s.k.
from Moffat, 21 N. from ^Carlisle, IS n.n.e. from Annan, and 12 N.
from Lougtowu, in Cumberland, delightfully situated on both sides
of the Esk, over which there is a suspension bridge, and also a stone
bridge of three arches, from which may bn seen the confluence of the
Ewes and the Wauehope with the Esk. This parish and the adjoin-
ing ones of Canoubie, Ewes,\Vesterkirk, and Eskiialemuir are known
as the " five kirks of Eskdale." The town of Laugholm owes its
origin to the border house or towcr.which was formerly the property
of the all-powerful Armstrongs, hut is now in a state of ruin. Atone
time no fewer than twelve such towers existed, and among them
Wauehope Castle, the earliest seat of the Lindsay family, was in the
immediate neighbourhood. The tower of Gilnockie still Btauds
about four miles below Langholm, on the light bank of the Esk. It was
s')me little lime ngo renovated by the late Duke of Bucclouch, and is
now open for the inspection of visitors. The author of the " Picture
of Scotland " says :— "Eskdalo derives more than common charm
from the memory of Johnnie Armstrong, whoso name was associated
with many of its localities." It was ou the Branxholm Holm that,
when going to meet King James V., he and his " gallant compauie" of
thirty-six men ran their horses and "brak their spears." Johnnie
terminated his mortal career at Carlenrig, a place not far distant
from Moss Paul, on the road between Langholm and Hawick; the
story of the judicial execution of this border chief and his com-
panions, by James V., is well known. The graves of the whole
of the marauding band are to be seen in a deserted churchyard at
Carlenrig. This district is olso associated with the Covenanters,
especially with the memory of Alexander Peden, ono of tlio most
famous of the Scottish worthies; a " knowe," or small bill, com-
manding a delightful view of the valley, is still named " Peden'a
View," and at its foot rises " Pedon's Well," where, in answer to his
prayer, a mist is said to have " shrouded him from the dragoonswho
were seeking his life," Lauuholm is the birthplace of Julius Meikle.
translator of " Camoe Lucied," and author of the song " There's nae
luck about the house."
Burnfoot, the residence of W. E. Ma c dm, Esq. is situated on
tho banks of the Esk, three miles froi . Langholm, and was the
birthplace of the " four knights < f Eskdale," Admiral Sir
Pulteuey Malcolm, General Sir John Malcolm, Sir James Malcolm,-
and Sir Charles Malcolm, who in various ways distinguished them-
selves in different parts of tho world. In the neighbourhood of
Lunghnlm is a copious mineral well, called Bloeh Well, which is
etficacious iu the cure of cutanoous diseases. It is less known than
it should be, owing to tho limited accommodation which exists in its
immediate neighbourhood. In the present day Langholm does not
seem to partake of any of the peculiarities which distinguished the
country in the *' riding times," or in the ages of superstition, being
now one of the most thriving towns of its size in Scotland. Tlio
making of plaids and blankets for tho neighbouring shepherds haa
developed into the manufacture of tweeds and other fabrics, which
find their way into all parts of the kingdom, and lanje quantities are
exported ; they bear a character second to nono in the woollen mar-
ket. Instead of the ono small mill which employed a few hands not
many years ayo. not l^ss than five factories now give employment
to the inhabitants. Now that there is railway communication,
supplied by the North British Railway Company, affording anoutlet,
to all parts of the country, there is little doubt that Lanyhohn, with
its inexhaustible water power, will become ono of the most im-
portant manufacturing towns iu the south of Scotland, Ruskin,in
his book on modern painters, remarks: ''There are perhaps no
scenes in our own island more interesting than the wooded dingles
which traverse them, the red rocks glowing out on either side and
shelving down into the pools of their deep brown rivers, as at Lang-
holm and Jedburgh ; the steep oak copses climbing the banks, the
paler plumes of birch shaking themselves free into tho light of tho
sky above, and the fen arches of the monastery, where the fields in
the glen are the greenest, or the stones of the border tower where
its cliffs are steepest, rendering biith field and cliff a thousandfold
more dear to the heart and sight." In the market place stands the
Town Hall, ornamented with a neat spire. Besides the woollen mills
already alluded to. the town contains a number of respectable
shops, a branch each of tho National Bank of Scotland, Limited, aud

churches, and one fur the Murrisouiau body, and a very handsome
Mission Hall, erected a few years ago, which is one of tbe finest of its
Mud iu Scotland. There is a very extensive and richly endowed
library, which derives considerable advantago from a munilicent
bequest of the late Thomas Telford, Esq. the celebrated engineer,
■who was a native of the district. A very neat and substantial stone
huildinc has been erected for the use of the library, at a cost of
about £2,600; £1,000 of this sum being a bequest of the late Alex.
Eeid, Esq., the remainder having been raised by subscriptions.
The inhabitants havo brought into the town at a considerable ex-
pense the copious spring kuown as " Whita Well," whereby every
family iu the place is now amply supplied with the purest water. A
monument to Sir John Malcolm stands on the hill behind the town,
erected at a cost of £1,300, and there is another near the Post Office
in memory of his brother, Sir Pulteney Malcolm. The market day
is Wednesday; fairs are held on the 16th April (for seeds), the last
Tuesday in May (old style), 26th July (for lambs and wool), 18th

two hiring days— oue in May and the other in November. There has
been established a fortnightly sale of cattle, sheep, &c.f aud the Esk-
dale and Liddesdale Agricultural Society hold their show of stock
generally in October, at which premiums are awarded. The parish

Canonbie (or Canonby), a parish halfway between Lougtown and
Langholm, and on the southern border of the county, is separated on
the southeast from England by the river Liddal, whose romantic
banks present some pleasing scenery, and on the south-west by the
" Scotch Dyke." The river Esk intersects the parish, dividing
| it into two equal parts. The parish, in which are mines of coal and
- qnarries of lime of excellent quality, and through which runs the
high road from Edinburgh to London, is about i) miles long and 6
broad. Tbe kirk is a very large stone building, and will accommo-
date 1,400 persons. There is also a handsome Free chnrcb. The
scenery along the Esk is considered to be the finest in the south of
Scotland. The Duke of Buccleuch is sole proprietor of the parish.
There are two stations — Canonbie and Gilnockie — on the Langholm
branch of the North British Railway. The hamlets of Hollows

DUMFRIESSHIRE
LOCHMABEN,
WITH THE PARISHES OF KIRKMIC H AEL, TINWALD AND TORTHORWALD, AND THE VILLAGES OF AMI3FIELD,
COLLIN, ROOCAN, SMALLHOLM, GREEN'HILL, HECK, HIGHTAE, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
LOCHMABEN is a town of considerable antiquity,a royal burgh, the
seat of a presbytery, aud capital of the parish of tbo name, 05
miles s. from Edinburgh, 70 s.e. from Glasgow, 33 a.E. from Sanquhar,
SOn.w. from Carlisle, 31 s.e. from Thoruhill.the same distance w. from
Langholm, 15 s. from Moffat, 13 n.w. from Annan, 10 W.N.W. from
Ecclefechan, 8^ n. by E. from Dumfries, and 4 w. from Lockerbie, It
is situated in a level country, surrounded by a. beautiful amphitheatre
of hills, and by all tlio charms which wood and water can bestow.
Few towns are situated in a district of so rich and varied beauty,
and few are associated with so many historical events. It traces its
origin to a very early age, and derives iis name from its situation
being among a number of beautiful lakes, or lochs; the loch on
which it is so delightfully placed (Ijochmahou) signifying in Scoto-
Irish " the lake on the white plain." The Castle Loch, which flows
very near the south side of tho town, is about three miles in circum-
ference ; the Mill Loch is somewhat of less dimensions, aud lies on
tho north side of the town ; this loch flows at times even up to the
doors of tho houses. In these two lochs there is a fish called the
vendace, or vendise, which is peculiar to these waters, and is said
not to be met with anywhere else in Britain. It indelicately formed,
about six inches long, and resembles a young herring1. How it came
here is not exactly knowu ; some suppose it to have been brought
from La Vendee, in France, when Brnce's castle was a royal resi-
dence, and hence the name veudace. There is an annual vendace
club, composed of geutlomon of the comity, who meet once a year,
about the end of duly, to have a day's fishing and recreation on
the Castle Loch. There is also another vendaco club, who lish in
the Mill Loch. These two lochs, as well as four others of consider-
able extent, are much resorted to by boating and tishiug parties, and
form a very agreeable recreation both to the inhabitants and also to
tourists and visitors. The Dumfries, Lochmaben and Lockerbie
branch of the Caledonian lino has a station here, aud also others at
Amisfield and Shieldhill.
The town owes its rise to the protection of a castle of vast strength,
which was built by Robert Bruce, Lord of Anuandale, and was the
chief residence of tho Bruces till the end of tho thirteenth ceutury.
It stood on the north-west of the lake which is called Castle Loch,
and was surrounded by a deep moat, the outline of which is still
to be seen. Tin's ancient castle was succeeded by a much larger
fortress, built on a peninsula on the south-cast side of the same
loch ; this edifice with its outworks covered about 16 acres. After
different grants to various relations of the Bruces, it was annexed
by Parliament, in 1487, to tho Crown, and is now the property or in
the keeping of Captain Hope Johnstone, of Raehills. Some of the
walls still exist ; they are of great thickness, and, with the melancholy
firs which mingle with them, present a gloomy yet interesting mass
of ruins. The period of the first erection of Lochmaben into a royal
burgh is of too reinoto a date for conjecture; its present charter
was granted by James VI., and states that it is a renewal of charters
granted by his illustrious predecessors; its date is 16th of July,
1612. From this charter it appears that the town was more than
once destroyed and burnt during the civil wars, its public edifices
plundered, and its ancient records, &c, totally lost; but although
the whole of the former privileges have been rcgaiued, the place
itself has never recovered its former consequence. The municipal
government is vested in a provost, one bailie, a dean of guild, a trea-
surer and five councillors. The burgh unites with Dumfries, Kirk-
cudbright, Annan and Sanquhar in returning one member to Parlia-
ment. The Town Hall, with its tower aud clock, stands in the
middle of the principal street, opposite to which thero is a very
handsome statue of Robert Bruce. A subscription library affords
information to tho gentlemeu by whom it is supported. There are
a Freemasons' lodge, two curling clubs, bowling green, and other
associations. There is a branch establishment here of the National
Bank of Scotland, Limited, and also a Savings Bank for the town
and neighbourhood. Lochmaben is uot a place of much trale; with
the exception of weaving stockings, shirts, &c, which is carried on
to a considerable extent, there are no manufactories. It is a rural
town, and a place of resort for tourists and strangers, who in tho
summer months visit it as a place of retirement and recreation.
The parish church is a handsome and convenient building in the
pointed style, with a hold square tower, in which are two well-toned
bolls. Tho foundation stone was laid' April 10th, 1818, and was
opened for divine worship in July, 1820. The edifice, which cost
about .£3,000, is capable of accommodating about 1,400 persons. The
Fioo church, built in 1844, is a plain aud neat structure, capable of
accommodating 700 persons; tbe cost of its erection was about
£800. There is a chapel for the United Presbyterians, and a Freo
church at Hightae, about three milos from Lochmaben. Fairs for
tho sale of po<k are held on the second and fourth Mondays in
January, on the first and third Mondays iu February and March, on
the last Monday iu November, and on tho second aud last Mondays
in December; and for seeds on the third Monday in March.
Within the parish of Lochmaben there are also four villages known
as the "Four towns," viz. : Smallholm, Greenhjll, Heck, and
Hightae. They are remarkable in Scotland as holding their lauds
by a peculiar tenure. The proprietors of lauds in these baronies are
called kingly tenants, and by successive warrants and protections
of the King in 1593, 1602, and 1GG4, declared to have right to continue
their possessions undisturbed aud at tho old rent, so long as they
shall continue to pay the same. These baronies are said to have
been conferred on the retainers of tho Bruce, and many of the pre-
sent holders can trace their ancestry for hundreds of years hack.
Sou succeeds father, and the title is completed by tho entry of tbo
uaine in Lord Mansfield's reutal book, and the usual solemnities of
service and iuliefment, otherwise common to the law of Scotland,
are here unknown. The parish comprises 10,813 acres, and iu 1681
had a population of 2,81G, of which number tho town of Lochmaben
contained 1,210.
Kirkmichael, united with Garren, in tho district of Nithsdale,
is about ten miles long aud four broad, and contains about 1(5,983
acres. The parish of Kirkpatrick-juxta hounds it on the north-west,
Johnstone on the north-east, Lochmaben on the south-east, Tin-
wald and Kirkmanse on tbe south, and Closeburn on the west.
Many remains of ancient fortifications and Itoman roads are visible
in this district. A number of ancient coins and other Bmall autiqui-
ti is have been found. More than half of the parish belongs to
the Duke of Buccleuch, and the rest is distributed among several
proprietors. The Ae river bounds the parish on tho west, which,
iu 1881, bad a population of 849.
Tho small village of Tinwald, which is situated about six miles
from Lochmaben, was the birthplace of Paterson, the projector of
tho Bank of Englaud, and the planner of the disastrous Darien
expedition. The parish of a triangular figure, each side oT which is
about four and a half miles in length, and contains 10,288 acres ;

DUMFRIES-SHIRE
LOCKERBIE,
AND THE PARISHES OF DRYFESDALE, SAINT MUNGO, TUNDERGARTH, HUTTON AND CORRIE, AND APPLEGARTH.
TVOCRERBIE is a neat small market town, in the parish of Dryfes-
dale, 07 miles s. of Edinburgh, 12 e. of Dumfries, Hn.w. of Annan,
b N.w. oi EoclBiechan, and i e. of Lochmaben ; situated on tbe groat
™ i S"'1 betwixt l!|asgnw and Carlisle, 72 miles s.E. of tbo former,
and 2C?3 N.w. of tbe latter, on tbe Caledonian Railway, for whicb
line there is a station. It is also tbe junction for Lochtnaben and
Dumfries. Tbe town occupies a considerable space of ground ; tbe
bmldiugs have a regular and clean appearance, and the surrounding
country presents some tine scenery. The origin of this place is re-
mote, and probably for a long period its character was only that of
a small hamlet, attached to and protected by tbe residence or a
stronghold of a family of some power. It is within tbe last century
that improvements have manifested themselves to some extent,
which may be mainly ascribed to tbe liberality of tbo proprietors,
who have granted long terms to tbe tenants on their estates. Manu-
facturers have not yet made their appearance in Lockerbie, hut tbe
trade in articles of general and domestic consumption is good, and
progressively augmenting with the increasing prosperity of its fairs
and public markets. It is proposed to build a town ball, with a
clook tower, and a committee has been formed, who have bought a
suitable site at a cost of £1,500. It will contain committee rooms
and a lesser ball, in tbo Scotch baronial style, and tbe building is
estimated to cost about £4,000, which has been raised by private
subscriptions, and a bazaar. In the basement is to be a large
market ball for the accommodation of farmers and others attend-
ing the Lockerbie markets. A branch of tbo Royal Bank of Scotland,
one of the Commercial Bank of Scotland, Limited, the Bank of
Scotland, and another of tbo Clydesdale Bank, Limited, are estab-
lished here ; a Bank for Savings, opened in 1824, has beeu eminently
successful. There are several good inns. A newspaper called the
Annandale Herald and Moflat News is published here everv
Thursday, and in Moffat every Friday. Tbo parish church
stands about thirty yards off the High street, and is
centrally placed in relation to tbe parish generally, the extreme
points not being at a greater distance than three miles and a half.
The Free church is a handsomo ornament to Bridge street, and the
chapel belonging to the United Presbvterian congregation is a con-
venient building. There is a female society for the relief of the
occasional poor, and a Masonic lodge. Tbo town is well lighted with
gas. A few years ago a considerable sum of money was left by Mr.
George Easton, of Chester, towards tbe erection of a Mechanics'
Hall. The building, a stouo one, is a neat erection in High street.
Largo and commodious schools were erected in 1875, by the School
Board, at a cost of nearly £5,000. The market is held on Thursday;
from the last week of November till the end of April it is extensively
supplied with pork, at which there are sometimes sold in a single
dny, from £1,000 to £2,000 worth. There is also a market for hiring
servants on the third Thursday in October (old style). Fairs are
held on the second Thursdays in January, February, March, April,
May, the third Thursday in June, and the second Thursday in
August (all old style). Tbe last fair, which is for lambs, is the
largest aud last lamb fair in Scotland— tbe number of lambs ou tbe
ground being, in some years, from 80,000 to 40,000. The remaining
fairs are a new one, established for the sale of cattle, in September,
the second Thursday in October, for cattle and horses, the second
Thursday in November, and tbo Thursday before Christmas (all old
style.) These fairs add much to the prosperity of tbe town, being
well attended : tbe new one in September lakes place the Thursday
before the large fair on Borough hill. Tbe day following the lamb
fair in August, races occasionally take place. The population of
Lockerbie in 1881 was 2,030.
Dryfesdale parish is in tbe district of Annandale, and includes
the town of Lockerbie. The extreme length from north-east to
south-west is about seven miles, tbo average breadth of the upper
part is about three miles, and of the lower half about one and a half;
about two thirds of tbo parish is lowland and tbo rest is hilly. There
is also a considerable extent of holm land towards tbe junction of
the Annan and tbe Dryfe. Of the whole extent of iho 10,281 acres in
this parish, about 80,000 are either cultivated or have occasionally
beeu ,in tillage, tbe remainder being in moor and pasturage. The
point which assumes the greatest height is Quhytewoollen Hill, the
elevation of which is C50 feet above the level of the sea. In 1881 tbe
parish had a population of 2.971.
Hutton and Cokhie is a united parish in tbo district of Annan-
dale, and situated about six miles n.e. of Lockerbie. It extends
twelve miles in length from north to Bouth, by a general breadth of
about three, and is bounded on the east by Eskdaieniuir, by Wam-
phray and Applegarth on the west, aud Tundergarth on the south
There are two Hoard schools and an Established church in the
parish, which has an area of 23,928 statute acres, and in 1881 it
contained a population of 814.
Saint Mungo parish is in the district of Annandale, through
which the road to Glasgow and Carlisle passes ; it is distant about
three miles from the village of Ecclefechau, and three from the town
of Lockerbie. Castlemilk is one of tbe most beautiful mansions in
this part of Scotland, bring romantically situated in the midst of
pleasure grounds, and in the bosom of a fine valley. This was
originally the seat of the ancient lords of Annandalo. Much later
it belonged to the Maxwells and tbe Douglasses. It was some time
ago purchased from George Armstrong, E<j. by a member of the
Jardine family. In the minority of Edward VI. it was besie"ed by
the Duke of Somerset, and some of tbe balls tired ou that occasion
were found m 1771, whou planting a spot, afterwards called " The
Cannon Holes." The present proprietor, Sir Robert Jardine, m.p.
has erected a new mansion near to the one above mentioned. The
Established church is a splendid stouo edifice, in the Gothic style
of architecture, erected at a cost of £5,000; it was opened on the
7th of January, 1870, beiug the gift of Sir Robert Jardine, m.p. of
Castlemilk. There is also a parochial school in tbe parish, which
contains about 4,897 acres, and in 1881 had a population of 053.
Tundergarth, a parish of 10,48.1 acres, in whicb a groat number
of sheep are pastured, is separated from that of Saint Mungo on the
west, and is nearly thirteen miles in length, by a breadth of only
about two miles in its widest part. The old castle, now in ruins is
deserving of notice, as it was formerly the residence of the
Marquesses of Anuaudale. Tbe conspicuous hill called Burnswarlc
overlooks the district from tbe south. There is an Established
church and a parochial school in tbe parish, the population of which
in 1881 was 460.
Applecakth (or Applegtrth), is a parish in the presbytery of Loch-
maben. In length northwards it extends nearly live miles and a
hah, aud its breadth eastward the same. It is bounded by Wamnh-
ray on the north-cast, by Hutton ou tbe oast, by Johnstone and
Lochmaben on the west, and by Dryfesdale ou the south The
village, or hamlet rather, lies on the hanks of the Aunan, tbrco miles
from Lockerbie, aud about eleven miles from Dumfries. There are
a steam saw mill, two railway stations, an Established church and
two parochial schools in the parish. Applegarth aud Sibbaidbie
which comprise au area of 11,869 acres, in 1881 contained a popula-
tlou of 909.

MOFFAT,
WITH THE PARISHES OF JOHNSTONE, KIRKPATRICK-JUXTA, AND WAMPHRAY, AND THE HAMLETS OF
CRAIGIELANDS AND HOPPERTOOTIE.
MOFFAT is a large parish of 42,972 acres, in the interesting dis-
trict of Annandale. The town which lias been styled the
" Baden of Scotland," is small, airy, cleanly and very respectable,
51 miles s. of Edinburgh, 57 s.e. of Glasgow, 14^ n. of Lockerbie, 41
N.w. of Carlisle, and 21 n. of Dumfries ; situated about one mile and
a half from Beattock station, on the Caledonian Railway, from
which, in 1882, a short line of railway was made, connecting Moffat
with the Caledonian main line from Edinburgh and Glasgow to
Carlisle and the South. During the season omnibuses also ply from
the Annandale and Buccleuch Arms Hotels to St. Mary's Loch on
the Selkirk road, passing Frenchland Tower, the lands of Dumcrieff
(Lord Rollo), Craitfiebum, celebrated in song by Burns, Hogg, &c.
(the property of J. Prondfoot, Esq., but now the summer residence
of Captain Hopegood), Capplegill (Mis. Johnstone), Bodsheck Hill,
the scene of Hogg's tale of " The Brownie," the " Grey Mare's Tail,"
sang of in Scott's" Marmion," Loch Skene, a wild and solitary tarn,
and are met at St. Mary's Cottago (Tibbie Shiel's) by conveyances
from Peebles and Selkirk, whence there are railways. The town
stands 378 feet above the level of the sea, and upon rising ground
gently declining towards the south, immediately at the foot of and
embraced by a chain of mountains, which form the northern boun-
daries of Dumfries-shire, with the adjacent counties of Lanark,
Peebles and Selkirk, and which completely environ it on the west,
north, and east. The huge summits of this elevated region reach to
various altitudes; some covered with wood, others beautifully
chequered and skirted with plantations of unequal Bize, and natural
clumps of birch, oak, and mountain aBh affording shelter and
enclosure to the intervening grounds, which are partly cul-
tivated and partly (though chiefly) pasture. The progress
in those pursuits has been of late very remarkable, as
shown in the rise in the price of land, and the reputation
of the farm stock of the breeders in the neighbourhood.
The principal street of the town (High street) is wide aud
spacious, laid down upon the principal recommended by the late
J. L. M'Adaiu, and is clean aud dry, even within a few minutes after
the heaviest fail of rain. It is lined with ranges of excellaot shops,
well supplied with the necessaries and luxuries of life, and even the
branch streets are being pressed into the service of commerce.
Within the last twenty years building has progressed rapidly on the
roads leading from the town proper, where there are many beautifully
situated villas, cottage s,&c, most of which are let furnished to visitors
for the season or a longer period, as may he Agreed upon. In Nov-
ember, 1875, an ornamental drinking fountain, consisting of a ped-
estal of rough sandstoue surmounted by the figure of a ram cast in
bronze, was erected iu the centre of the town ; it was the gift of the
late William Colvin, Epq. of Craigielands. A short distance from the
town is a hydropathic establishment, the building, which is of great
extent, is of red sandstone, aud has a grand aud imposing appear-
ance. It was commenced in June, 1875, and contains nearly two
hundred apartments, including dining, billiard, smoking and numer-
ous sitting rooms, &c. It has accommodation for over 800 visitors,
and is one of the handsomest and best conducted establishments of
Its kind in Scotland. The town commands an extensive and fine
prospect of a delightful valley, stretching towards the south, ititers-
persed with hedge-rows, meadows and cornfields, and pleasingly
diversified by the windings of the river Annan, which has its source
in an extraordinarily strange and wild ravine in this district, named
the " Devil's Beef Tub," and runs at a distance of about two hun-
dred yards along the south-we?t of the town, then glides away to
meet its neighbouring strrarns, the Evan and the Moffat which unite
about five miles below. The surrounding plantations, every year
increasing in extent and beauty, and the cultered strath, the tree-
garnished hill, the legended turret, ancient Roman camps and
roads, beautiful wAlks, aud the copse and thicket free to the feet of
the visitor, supply the eye with pleasure and the frame'with health.
About four miles north-west from hence there is a petrifying spring,
and there are others that do not attract so much notice. To the
antiquary the neighbourhood of Moffat presents many objects of
gratification, and to these are attached traditions worthy of atten-
tion, but too numerous aud prolix for detail in a work like the
present. The celebrated road maker, John Loudon M'Adam, died
in this town, on the 26th November, 1836, in his 81st year ; he was a
native of Ayrshire, but was much attached to the locality of
Moffat, where he spent a great portion of his early life. Upon one
of his sons was conferred the honour of Kuighthood, which his
father had declined on account of his age and growing infirmities.
Mr. M'Adam received from Government i,'10,000, in two separate
instalments. To his credit it is recorded that during the whole
career of his honourable independent service, he never con-
tracted for works, deeming such a method of acquiring wealth in-
compatible with the duties of an engineer. On the 18th September,
1860, the eminent civil engineer, Joseph Locke, m.p. (born ut Atter-
cliffe, 1806), assistant and pupil of George Stephenson, died
in Moffat whilst enjoying the sports of the shooting season.
There are three principal inns, admirably conducted by their res-
pective; proprietors, namely, the Annancale Arms, the Buccleuch
Arms, aud the Star, while a fourth, the Beattock Bridge Hotel, lies
south of the town and near the railway. The Star is an elegant inn,
erected a few years ago ; the Buccleuch Arms (formerly Cranstoun's
Private Hotel), has been enlarged, refitted and improved as a public
inn; while the Annandale Arms is a place of old repute, and the
Beattock Bridge Hotel is known to all travellers. There are likewise
in the town well frequented bath rooms, to which a spacious news-
room is attached for the ubo of visitors ; these are under excellent
management. The large hall of the bath-room is used for concerts,
lectures, &c, and during the summer a subscription band is added
to the other attractions, which disperses " the concord of sweet
sound " to the promenaders ; on every Friday evening during the
season there is a ball. On the same premises there is a small but
neat and well kept bowling green, as well as a billiard room. The
other chief buildings are Moffat Houso (the town residence of the
superior, J. J. Hope Johnstone, Esq. of Annandale), the Established,
the Free and the United Presbyterian churches ; the latter a hand-
some structure, erected at a cost of about £3,000, was opened for
worship iu July, 1864. The Established church, built and presented
to the parishioners in 1796 by the late Earl of Hopetoun, was one of
the churches of Annandale transferred to the Bishop of Glasgow,
and was constituted one of the prebends of the see. The present
structure, the foundation stone of which was laid in August 1885, and
which was opened for public worship in September 1887, is of Gothic
architecture, aud is seated for 1,150 persons. The main door is sur-
mounted by a tower rising 107 feet, while at the north, east, and north-
west corners there are spirelets rising over 50 feet each. Internally
the church measures 80 feet by 50 feet in the nave, and 61 feet in
width at the transept. The pulpit is of a highly ornamented
character, being of carved pitch pine, set on seven polished pillars of
red saudstone. Some of the principal windows — notably the elegant
circle above the pulpit — have already been filled in with stained glass.
At the west end a hall as been placed, with vestry ou the south
and session house on the north sides. The hall is lighted by a
double mullioned window over the reading desk and single mullioned
windows at each side. The church aud hall, together with an elegant
and commodious manse built close by, have cost between £12,000
and .£13,000, £4,000 of which has been subscribed by the congrega-
tion, and the remainder provided by the heritors of the parish. The
Episcopal church is a modern iron building, erected in 1872. The
fioman Catholic chaj)el is a wooden structure, which is only open fur
worship during the summer season. There are also three branch
banks and a savings bank, the Academy, and Morrison's school,
There is a subscription library containing upwards of 4,000 volumes,
and two newspapers, the Annandale Herald and Moffat News and the
Moffat Times, the former published on Friday and the latter on Satur-
day, while each contains a visitors' list.
Moffat has long anil justly been celebrated as a fashionable sum-
mer resort for invalids and pleasure seekers, and for the medicinal
virtues of its mineral waters. The springs are three in number, one
sulphurous and two chalybeate. The sulphurous spring is distin-
guished by the name of " Moffat Well," aud is about a mile from the
town ; a very good carriage road leads to it, and daring the summer
omnibuses ply between it and the town. The " Fons Moffetenss "
was described in Latin, in 1659, by Matthew Mackaile, as a spring
possessing great healing virtues, sufficiently well known to excite
interest. It is now nearly 300 years siuce the discovery of the
valuable qualities of this spring, duriDg which time it has been
much frequented from all parts of Scotland, and also by visitors
from England and in some instances from Ireland ; of late the sum-
mer visitors have so increased as to be numbered by thousands. In
all scrofulous and scorbutic cases it is a powerful remedy, being
seldom known to prove ineffectual when the lungs were not
diseased ; in the removal of bilious complaints, also, it is eminently
successful, us well as in creating an appetite and promoting diges-
tion, and it is an excellent specific for gravel and rheumatism. It
sparkles in the glass like champagne, but is so volatile that it can be
drunk in perfection only at the fountain, whither the summer
sojourner- hie in the morning, on foot or by omnibus. Hartfell Spa
was first discovered in the year 1748, by a man named John William-
son. It issuc3 from a rock of alum slate, in the side of Hartfell
mountain, near Moffat, and may be carried to any distance, bnt it
will not keep good for more than four days. It is a potent
restorative, highly beneficial iu all complaints peculiar to the fair sex.
The other chalybeate is of a peculiar nature, and obtained in a very
curious manner — namely, by pouring water upon a rock in the side
of a savage dell called " Gartpool Linn," in the vicinity of the town.
The surface of this rock is strongly impregnated with sulphate of
alumina and iron ; the water is much stronger than that of Hartfell,
and consequently taken in smaller portions — not more than a wine-
glassful at a time. The exquisite scenery of this Linn has been laid
out in walks by the munificence of the late proprietor, the Hon.
Butler Johnstone, and is freely open to the public. The different
rivers Bupply abundance of amusement to the trout angler, and the
celebrated alpine lake Loch Skene, whose elevation is upwards of
one thousand feet above the level of the sea, contains the finest
species of that fish in the south of Scotland. The outlet of the
watei s of this lake is by the lofty aud magnificent cascade called the
" Grey Mare's Tail," tumbling over precipitous rocks, computed to
be about 300 feet above the level of the vale, and which appears
from the opposite side of the glen to be one unbroken fall. This is
the loftiest fall in the British Islands. It pours its waters into the
infant Moffat, which flows on through a grand narrow pass, until it
sweep sthroughthe domains of Dumcrieff, the property of Lord Rollo,
and loses itself in the Annan.
Moffat was constituted a burgh by the adoption in 1864 of ihe
Police Act, and now possesses a commission invested with powers
for the sanitary improvement of the burgh, the holding of monthly
courts, and other matters concerning health and morals. Mofl'at is
the seat of a sheriff's small debt (local) court, and justice of peace
courts are held on the first Friday of April, August and December.
Moffat has been the birth-place of several nolables — eg. Nicholaus
de Moffet, Bishop of Glasgow (1260-1270); Robert Johnstone, ll.d.
author of a "History of Scotland," &c; Walter Boyd, banker, of
Boyd, Benfield & Co. ; William Dickson, a writer on slavery ; William
Murray, the chronometrist ; and Dr. D. Welsh, moderator of the
first Free Church Assembly. The late Peter Johnston, Esq. of
Harthope, endowed in the parish a side school, at Evan Water, and
a female industrial school, beside the Ladies Knowe. Friday was the
weekly market day, but is now discontinued, although the farmers
meet in great numbers on that day. There are two half-yearly hiring
markets; the first is held on the third Friday in March (old style),
the second on the Friday after the 19th of October. A fair for lambs
is held in July, oa the Friday after Langholm, There is also an,

MOFFAT
DUMFRIES-SHIRK
annual sheep and cattle market called tlie Top Pair, in September,
on the Friday after the- Falkirk tryst, at which time a flower, sheep,
entile, &c. show — or rather a combination of shows is held, to which
by its excellence great crowds are attracted. The district is noted
for the breed of cheviots; there is a grand annual sale of rams of
that breed held at the Beattock Hotel on tho day before the tup fair.
Some choice specimens of stock are always forwarded, and prices
per head have repeatedly exceeded 100 guineas. Tho population of
Moffat parish in 1881 was 2,930 ; of the town, 2,161.
The parish of Kirkpatrick-Juxta derives its name from its
vicinity to a chapel, of which the ruins are yet visible, formerly
dedicated to the famous missionary, meaning the " lauds nigh to
the kirk of Saint Patrick." It is situate in the upper district of
Annandale, bounded on the north by Moffat, and on tho east by
Wamphray, and contains 22,335 acres. The celebrated Gartpool
Linn is in this parish ; likewise tho castle of Auchencastlo, the ruins
of which cover a considerable extent of grouud. It was erected by
Randolph, Earl of Murray, during the minority of David *(the
Bruce," and subsequently was in the possession of Douglas of Mor-
ton ; its antiquity, therefore, is unquestionable. The modern castle
of .* ncheucastle, the residence of William Younger, Esq. is a struc-
ture of considerable extent, and splendidly situated on rising
gicund, near the Evan Water. The old tower of Loch-house is
supposed to have been re-built by James Johnstone, of Corehead,
chamberlain to Bishop Whiteford, of Brechin, whoso daughter the
chamberlain married, and with her obtained possession of the
extrusive lands belonging to the bishop in Kirkpatrick-Juxta and
Moffat. Loch-house is now inhabited by a cottier or herd, who has
his cot within its walls. There are otber ruins of ancient edifices,
viz. a chapel a little to the n.w. of Moffat, which excites some
interest, and is worthy of survey. Tho summer residence of James
Smith, Esq., Craigielands; and tho elegant mansion of Marohbank-
wo»J ( Vliss Johnstone), near which is also Beattock House, a fine
modern building, are the only modern mansions of any note in the
parish. The parish church is a plain stone edifice with tower.
About one-third of the laud is under tillage ; the larger portion is
unimproved and pasture, though it is being rapidly subdued to the
plough, Craigielands and Hoppertootie are hamlets in Kirk-
patrick-Juxta. Population of Kickpatrick-Juxta parish in 1881,
1,064.
Johnstone parish is in the district of Aunaudalc, adjoining Kirk-
patrick-Juxta; it is six miles in length, and three in breadth, and
contains 18,490 acres. The remains of Locbwood tower, situate at
tho northorn end of tho parish, in the centre of a venerable and
picturesque wood, and surrounded by impassible bogs, are the
only vestiges of antiquity sufficiently interesting to attract attention
in the parish. Regarding the own unknown personage by whoso
orders it was originally erected, James VI, is recorded to have
remarked that u however honest he might have been ill outward
appearance, he must have been a rogue at heart,'' Robert, natural
brother to the chieftain, Lord John Maxwell, of Nithsdale, burnt
it in savage glee in the sixteenth century, during tho clannish
quarrel, which resulted in the hattlo of tho Dryffe Lands; John
James Hope Johnstone, Esq., of Annandale, is proprietor, and
occupies an elegant mansion called Raehills, the only notable
residence in Ihe parish. There is nothing peculiar to bo observed
respecting this local portion of the district, further than that (on
the authority of a late reverend minister) " in this populous rural
parish there is neither public-house, nor meeting house, nor village,
nor prison, nor lawyer, nor b: ggar," all of which is true still. It has
four well conducted schools, and tho educational, moral, and
religious interests of the parish are carefully and efficiently attended
to. The parish churchyard contains the family vault of the House
of Annandale. The heritors of this parish erected, in 1862, a
parochial school, with house for the master, and library attached,
at a cost of ,£550 ; the library contains over one thousand volumes.
Population of Johnstone parish in 1881, 1,002.
The parish of Wamphrey receives its name from its situation
emphatically expressed by the Gaelic word Vamh-fri, signifying
" the den in the forest." Agreeably to this etymology, the church
stands in a deep woody recess, by the side of Wamphray water,
which brawls and thunders its way through a most romantic and
picturesque glen, formed on both sides either by high steep banks,
clad with thriving plantations, or by tho lofty basaltic columns,
mantled with ivy, and sportively adorned by Baplings of ash rising
from their interstices. This parish adjoins Kirkpatrick-Juxta and
Johnstone ; it is of an oblong figure, six miles and a half in length,
by three in breadth, with an acreage of 13,133. There are but four
resident proprietors. The Caledonian Railway runs through the
parish, and has a station here. Population in 1881, 455.

SANQUHAR,
CRAW1CK, KIRKCONNEL, MENNOCK BRIDGE, WANLOCKHEAD, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
The places of worship arc the parish church, a Free church, two
for United Presbyterians, a Baptist chapel, and one for the Evan-
gelicau Union or Morrisoniau body. The parish church, which was
erected in 1823, on the site of an older one, is a very handsome
edifice, with a square tower, and stands on elevated ground,
The executors of the late James Crichton, of Friar's Carse, in this
county, and a native of Sanquhar, appropriated £2,000 for the purpose-
of erecting and endowing a free school in Sanquhar. In 1885, by an
order of the Educational Endowment Commissioners, this school
was discontinued, and the net proceeds of the endowment applied,
through the School Board, to the purposes of higher education. Fairs
are held on the first Friday after ihe 12th of February and November
(old style) ; and there is one for lamba, sheep and wool, on the 17th
July, or Ihe first Friday after. Crawick and Mennock Bbidge are
i;i this parish. Population of the parish in 1681, 3,035 ; and of the
town, 1,353.
Kirkconnel village is 4 niile* n.w. from Sanquhar, and 8 e. from
New Cumnock, situate on the high road between Dumfries and
Glasgow. It contains the parish church and parochial school. The
parish, which is bounded by that of Sanquhar on the south and east,
is 15 miles in length and S in breadth, and contains about £G,6G0
acres. In it are two mineral spiiugs, one possessing medicinal
properties similar in effect to those of llartfcll spa, near Moffat ; the
other similar to the Kiililand spa in Galloway. Thciv is a good hotel
in the village. The inhabitants are employed in agriculture and. in
the ail joining coal works. The Duke of Buccleuch is proprietor of
nearly the whole of this parish. Population of the parish in 1881,
1,019, of which the village contained 464.
Wanlockhead village is situated at the eastern extremity of the
parish of Sanquhar, and near the foot of the Lowther hills, about 8
miles n.e. from the burgh. It is said to be more elevated above the
sea level than any other village or town iu Scotland. The houses are
scattered on the hillside, without regard to regularity. The extensive
and valuable lead mines belonging to the Duke of Buccleuch furnish
employment to a considerable number of miners, artisans and others.
The mines are reputed to have been discovered during the minority
of James VI., by some Germans who were searching for gold. It is
said that " Humphrey Clinker " was written by Smollet whilo on a

SANQUHAR is a large parish of 40,816* acres, iu the district of
Nithsdale. The town, au ancient one, erected into a burgh of
barony in 1484, and advanced to the dignity of a royal burgh by
charter from James VI. in 1596, is 56 miles s.s w. of Edinburgh, the
same distance s. by e. of Glasgow, 32 e.s.e. of Ayr, and 26 n.w. of
Dumfries ; situated on the left bank of the Kith, and on the Glasgow
and South-Western Railway, for which line there is a station.
Sanquhar, it is supposed, owes its origin to a castle of considerable
importance, the ruins of which are now to be seen at a short
distance to the south-east, on a high bank overlooking the river
Nith. It was a few years ngo excavated with great care by order of
His Grace the Duke of Buccleuch, and many interesting objects
were found, including sevtral human skeletons aud a well of great
depth with a bucket suspended in it. It must have been a building
of great strength, having towers at the angles, and surrounded
by a ditch. It formerly belonged to a branch of the family of
Crichton, ancestors of the Marquis of Bute, who holds the title of
Lord Sanquhar. The castle, as well as the greater part of the land
in the neighbourhood, is the property of the Duke of Buccleuch. About
a mile from it stands the house of Eliock, the residence of tho family
of Veitcb, who gave a senator to the college of justice in the last
century ; this mansion lays claim to the honour of being the birth-
place of the " Admirable Crichton." The town consists chiefly of
one main street. The Town Hall stands at the end of High street,
and has a tower with a clock. In 1882 a handsome public hall was
erected, at a cost of £1,500. Sanquhar is the principal coal mart in
the county, and large quantities are supplied to Dumfries and other
parts. The coalfield extends seven miles in length and two aud a
half in breadth, aud the veins are from thive feet eight inches to
four feet six inches in depth. The Duke of Buccleuch is the chief
proprietor. There are two manufactories for spades and shovels,
one at Crawick and one near tho railway station, and there are also
two brick and tile works iu the town. The British Linen Company
and the Royal Bank of Scotland have branches here, aud there is
also a District Savings Bank. The town is governed by a provost,
two bailies, a dean of guild, treasurer, aud four councillors ; and, in
conjunction with Dumfries, Annan, Kirkcudbright, and Lochmaben,
sends one member to Parliament, the present representative being
Robert T. Reid, Esq.

rTlHORNHILL is a very respectable and considerable village in the
1 parish of Morton, 6G miles s. by e. of Glasgow, 48 W.W. of
Carlisle, 40 n.e. of Newt. 01 Stewart, 44 s.E. of Kilmarnock, 30 n.w.
of Annan, the samo distance s.E. of Cumnock, 22 n.k. of New Gal-
loway, 14 n.w. of Dumfries, 12 s.e, of Sanquhar, and 7% n.k. of
Moniiiive. It is a fetation on the Glasgow ami South-Western
railway, and is charmingly situaled towards the centre of the ex-
tensive amphitheatre of hills which inc'ude Middle Nithsdale, with
the river Nifch winding through the valley. About four miles from
Thornhill is Drumlanrig Castle, the noble mansion of ibe Duke of
Bucc tench and Queen sherry ; it is beautifully situated on rising
ground on the right bank of iho river, overlo iking the whole
district. Within the last half century the woods around the castle
have been greatly extended, and now cover a largo portion of
country. The gardens and pleasure grounds of the castlo are very
beautiful ; they are kept with great care, and are free to the inspec-
tion of visitors on Tuesday and Friday. The casile was re-built by
William, first Duke of Queensberry, between the years 1679 and 1G89,
and it is said the expense incurred In building was so great tbat the
Duke, uot wishing that any one should inspect the accounts con-
nected with it, wrote upon them " tbe deil pvke out Ids ecn wha
looks herein." It is also related tbat the Duke only slept one night
in the castle that had cost hira so much in erecting. Some of tho
remains of a very ancient building, which was called the House of
the Hassock, and on the site of which the present castle was built,
may still be traced. In the year 1776, when Mr. Pennant visited
Drumlanrig, there was a breed of wild caltlo in the woods, which
are described as being of a milk-white colour, with black ears and
finely curved horns. It is said they were removed to Chillingham
Castle in Northumberland, where the breed still exists, as well as at
Hamilton. Within a mile of Drumlanrig Castlo are the ruins of a
very ancient castle, which a few years ago were excavated with
great care, by order of nis Grace the Duke of Buccleuch; this is
'libber's Castle, which appears to have been destroyed in the time
of Bruce, and is referred to in Blind Harry's metric;. 1 history of Sir
William Wallace. About three miles from Thorn hill are ihe very
fine ruins of Morton Castle. It is very ancient, having been under
the care of Sir Thomas Randolph, Eail of Moray, duiing the
minority of David Bruce. The raius and the surrounding scenery
are very picturesque, and have fonmd a stud? for several dis-
tinguished painters, viz., Thomson of Do doings ton, and Horatio
M'Oulloch. The remains of Roman encampments and, in the high
grounds, of ancient British encampments, are very numerous over
the whole district, and at one time there were many cairns of
stones. About three miles from Tboruhill, iu the parish of Close-
burn, there is a very remarkable ravine, worn out of the soft sand-
stone by a small rivulet. This is Cricbope Linn, classical from the
writings of Sir Water Scott, in which it is described as bring the
hiding place of Balfour of Burleigh. Tbi3 pla'-e, as well as almost
every glen in tho district, has associations c mnected with the times
of the persecuted covenanters. The whole of the district may also
be said to form part of *' tho laud o' Burns." Over it be travelled
while engaged in the duties of the excise, and mauy of his finest
poems are connected with it. The village of Thornl III is in a very
salubrious situation, tbe streets are wide, and the In uses are uoatly
disposed. The land belongs to the Duke of Buc.le.ich and Queens-
berry. In Tbornbill i-i a society of young men, having for their
object the diffusion of knowledge among the people by means of
public lectures. There is also a public library containing about 800
volumes, several benevolent sock ties, a musical club, a bowling
green, a lawn tennis court, Ac; there ia also a museum of natural
Itistory and autiquities. The building, which was erected i i
18b9, is surrounded by tastefully laid out grounds, in which there is
an extensive collection of plants, shrubs and trees. In the grounds
of the museum is a very good statue of Richard Cameron, the noted
Covenanter, who fell lighting at Airclmoss, Ayrshire, when his head
was cut off and conveyed to Edinburgh, and there placed on the
Nether bow. Tbe statue is tbe work of tbe lale Mr. Curric,
sculptor, Dumfries. A soc.ety named the Society of Enquiry,
having for its object original research and observation in science,
has monthly meetings iu the tnnsenro. The Nithsdale Agricultural
Society's show is held on the third Tuesday of September, annually.
The trade of the village is chiefly of a domestic nature; there is,
however, a brewery, audit can boast of two of the most respectable
aud comfortable hotels iu tho south of Scotland ; they are tho Buc-
cleuch and Queensberry and the Goorge. The parish church,
which was erected in 1781, was situated about a mile and a half from
Morton Castle, but as tho population had congregated at Tbornbill
in later years, it was taken down aud a handsome one built in 184"-1,
near the village, by the Duke of Buccleuch, at a cost of £3,550,
affording accommodation for 1,200 persons. There arc places
of worship for the Uuilcd Presbyterian and Morrisonian bodies. At
Gat EL aw Bridge, about two miles from Tbornbill, is the Union
Poorhouse, which serves for the ten adjoining parishes. Fairs are held
on the second Tuesday in February (old style), and on the last
Friday in June ; the latter chiefly for hiring reapers and agri-
cultural labourers. The populate n of Tbornbill in 18S1 was 1,289.
; Tho parish of Morton extends from tho left bank of the Nitn,
north-eastward to the borders of Lanarkshire, a distance of between
6 and 7 miles, by a breadth of about 4, its contents being 8,036
acres. It is bounded on tho north and north-west by Penpont and
Durisdeer, and on the east and south by Closeburn ; it is both pas-
toral and arable, and, where cultivated, is well enclosed and fertile.
In addition to the Kith, the Carron and Cample streams pass
through the parish, the whole of which belongs to the Duke of Buc-
cleuch, exclusive of one small property. Population in 1881, 2,118.
; The parish of Gef.nc.uun is also in Nithsdale, and extends 11
miles in length, by from 3 to 5 in breadth, containing about 80, 083
1 acres. The western and northern divisions are mountainous and
pastoral. Several small rivulets moauder beautifully through it,
enriching tho scenery, to which the elegant mansion and grounds
' of Colonel Walker contribute greatly. On the south-west verge of
the parish is Loch Urr, whence issues the river of that name. The
chutch is situate at a short distance from the Bite of uq older
j edilice. Population of the parish in 1881, 1,787.
i Moniaive, a small but pleasant village in the parish of Glen*
' cairn, is 16 miles n.w. from Dumfries, and 8 s.s.w. from Tboruhill.
i The business of Moniaive is of a domestic nature, and chiefly sup-
1 ported by tho many gentry and respectable farmers of the surrouud-
. ing neighbourhood. The Union Bauk of Scotland, Limited, has a
branch established hero, which supplies the monetary requirements
I of the village. There are also two respectable inns, the Craigdarroch
| Anns and the George. Moniaive is a place of some antiquity, and
formerly of more consequence than it is now, having been a burgh
of barony, chartered iu the reign of Charles I. It was in this dis-
trict that several martyrs suffered at tbe time of the Reformation,
and in this neighbourhood may be seen various testimonials to their
memory. Cue very handsome monument, erected on an cininenco
near the Tillage, bears the following inscription : — "In memory of
tbe late Bev. James Rsuwick, the last who suffered death for attach-
ment to the covenanted cause of Christ in Scotland. Born near this
spot, 15th Feby., 1662, and executed at the Grass Market, Edin-
burgh, 17th Feby., 1653. Erected by subscription, 1828." Situated
on the mu'th bank of the Dalwbat water, which is here ciossed by
abridge, is Dunreggan, now a suburb of Moniave. The population
of Moniaive, including Dunreggae, was in 1881, 676.
Cr.osEBuaN is a vilhigo and parish in the district of Nithsdale; it
has incorporated with it tho parish of Dalgarno, aud is about 10
miles iu length by about 11?^ in breadth, and contains about 20,102
acres. Tho ruins of the ancient Castle of Closeburn, tbe property of
the late George Bainl, Esq., and now in the bauds of tbe trustees,
form an interesting object iu the scenery here, which derives nddit*
tional beauty lrom some romantic waterfalls. The nn&t
prominent architectural feature in Iho parish is the baronial
mausion, Closeburn Hall, a large and splendid Grecian edifice, A
school was most amply en lowed in 1728, by one John Wallace, a
native of the parish ; it is place. i under the government of the
presbytery of Penpont. Mr. John Stevens, M.A., is the master. The
places of worship are Established aud Free churches. Near Ciose-
burn Castle is a strong sulphurous spring, of the same character as

EDINBURGHSHIRE.
THE County of Edinburgh, or Mid-Lothian, lies in the southern division of Scotland ; bounded on tlio north by the Frith of Forth (an
arm of the German Ocean); by Linlithgowshire, or West-Lothian, on the west; by the counties of Lanark, Peebles, and Selkirk on
the south ; and by Haddingtonshire, or East-Lothian, with small portions of Berwickshire and Roxburghshire on the east. The length of
the county, from east to west, is about thirty-six miles; and its breadth, from its extreme apex on the south, to near Musselburgh on
the north, where tho eastern extremity if the county abuts ou Haddingtonshire, is about twenty-four miles. In figure,
which is very irregular, it may be said to describe the segment of a circle, indented on its southern boundary by the counties of Berwick
and Selkirk, and on its south-western verge by Lanarkshire. It contains about three hundred and sixty-seveu square miles, or 234,926
acres. This county iu size ranks as the twenty-second, and in population as life second.
Name and Early History.— In respect to the appellation " Edinburgh," all the information that can be obtained ou the subject, from
tho obscurity of ages, is furnished in the description of the capital ; while that of the " Lotbiau " will bo given in the present article. In
the first century of the christian era, this district of Scotland, according to best authorities (including the Messrs. Chambers, from whose
valuable topography we have drawn largely), was inhabited by tribes of Ottadina and Gadciii, the British descendants of those enterprising
foreign Celts who had first landed in the island. The Roman legions entered Edinburghshire about the year a.d. 80, when Agricola
formed a chain of forts across the isthmus of land between the estuaries of the Clyde and Forth. We shall pass over the imperfect history
of the wars of the natives and their irresistible enemies, the Romans, who finally secured the space they bad at first marked down as
their own. The skilful general who restored the Roman power was Theodosius, under the Emperor Valeutiniau I., who iu compliment to
his imperial master, entitled the extensive district he bad thus conquered the province of Valentin, which this warlike people retained
possession of for three hundred aud sixty years. During their residence they reared altars, baths, granaries, and other works of art, st ill
occasionally seen, and left those coins and weapons which from time to time are exposed in turning up the surf ice of the soil. The
exigencies of the state at length required their presence nearer the capital, but it was with extreme regret that they abandoned their
settlement. The date of their abdication is 44li, and the epoch of the re-subversion of the Romanised Ottudini by Saxon invaders is only
three years later. After a century of bard lighting, the superior genius of tho Saxon Ida fixed this new race in those districts now com-
prehended in the shires of Berwick, part of Roxburgh, Haddington, Linlithgow, aud a portion of Stirling. In the course of time this
province obtained the distinctive appellation of Laodonir, Lothene, aud n o-e lecently Lothian. The origin of this title has occasioned
much controversy, without arriving at a satisfactory conclusion a\tou its derivation. In common speech the district is to this day called
Loudian or Loudon ; thus the proper pronunciation is inure correct, as regards etymology, than that which is in use am >ng writers. Every
foot of ground covered by the metropolis and its environs has been the scene of warlike strife, frequently involving the fate of tho king-
dom. In the struggle which Edward III. maintained for the restoration of the Baliol dynasty, oue of the most sanguinary battles was
fought on the Borough-moor of the metropolis. In 1383 Mid-Lothian was subjected to the horrors of pi Huge and conflagration, in the
expedition of Richard II.; and a century and a half later, it suffered much from the invasion of tho English, ou account of the treaty of
marriage between the son of Henry VIII. and the young Queen of Scots. The county was, soon after, the scene of many of the insurrec-
tionary movements against the authority of Queen .Mary, particularly that at Carberry Hill. Of the many interesting events connected
with this county, the metropolis of it has been the nucleus ; and our historical notice of Edinburgh, therefore, will presout many details.
Surface, Soil, and Climate. — The greater portion of the county is, if not mountainous, hilly, and iu many places wild, and
pastoral. The most prominent rising grounds are the Pentland Hills, and the following eminences, with their altitude above the level of

tho close of tho eleventh century, agriculture hid ma ie some progress in the district of Mid-Lothian. During the last and present
century much has been accomplished iu this part in rearing plantations; bat it is to th i society of Iinprover»t formed at Edinburgh,
about the year 1723, that this county is mainly indobtod for its advancement iu agriculture. Iu 1714 potatoes were first raised in fields,
and in about thirty years afterwards their cultivation was completely established in the county. The agriculture of Mid-Lothian, now
conducted in the best manner that science can suggest or capital render efficient, is vigorous y prosecuted in the valleys of the rivers ;
the upland districts being unsuitable for agriculture, thus causing more attontion to be devoted to sheep farming. Upon the whole it may
be remarked, with regard to the soil of this county, aud its management, that a very active spirit of improvement everywhere prevails ;
cultivation is rapidly ascending the hills, white the boggy grounds are gradually undergoing a process of drainage. The universally pre-
valent system ol leases here, generally fur nineteen years, gives the tenant farmers of Scotland an independence which tenants at will,
or from year to year, cannot have, and enables them with confidence to expend money on tho land. The Climate is, upon the whole,
salubrious, and not unfavourable to vegetation, its greatest drawback being its variability.
Minerals, Manufactures, and Commerce. — The county abound-* iu several valuable minerals, especially coal, sandstone, lime-
stone, and whin stone. In ihe western part is an extensive coal Held, and tho eastern contains iuexaustiblo aud rich beds of this valuable
mineral, extending from the shore at Musselburgh, on both sides of the North Esk, about fifteen miles inward, to the head of that stream
at Carlops, on tho confines of Tweeddalc. Iu tho parish of Calder are extensive bods of rich bituminous shale, from which paraffin oil
and other chemical prolucts are extracted. Mid-Lothian possesses saudstone of different kiu Is, and of an excetleut quality. The
quarries of Edinburghshire have long enjoyed a pre-eminence which cannot be so effectually indicatod by anything as by the appearance
of the New Town of Edinburgh. Tin works of Craigleith and Hailes, near the city, may be justly considered objects of curiosity.
Almost all the houses of tbo New Town, besides other buildings, have beei reared from the former mine. There are several otlnr
quarries of inferior note throughout the county. Lead was, iu former times, found at the head of the North Rsk, ou th ) south sido of the
Pentland Hills. A vein of copper is said to exist in the parish of Currie, but it has never been worked. The Manufactures of Edin-
burghshire cannot be traced to a remote date, and have ever been remarkable (or their extent. It is but little more than a century siuce
that the fabrication of linen was known iu th". county. In E liuburjli, Leith, and Musselburgh there are now numerous manufactories of
goods of different kinds, which will be found under their appropriate hea Is iu tbo Dirodory of these places. The principal articles
manufactured in the shire for exportation, either by out-ports or inland, besides Scotch linens, are glass, soap, salt, candles, refiued
sugar, ale, whisky, leather, bricks, tiles, pottery, irou, chemical preparations, printing ink aud materials, paper, aud books. Tho manu-
facture of paper became first known in Scotland iu this county, and the district still possesses large establishments employed iu the
manufacture of this invaluable material, chiefly sitnated at Penicuick, and in the neighbourhood of Colintou and Lass wade. Paraffin
oil has also become an important manufacture at Mid and West Calder. The maritime traffic of the county, which is very considerable,
is concentrated at L< ith, the only port suitable to the entrance of large vessels, and indeed the only one of any kind except those of
Fisherrow, or Musselburgh, Newliaven, and the rising port of Granton. The Union canal, SI miles in length, proceeding to tho west
from Edinburgh, conveys large quantities of coals and various kinds of goods to the city.
Rivers and Railways. — This county does not possess any largo rivers. This deficiency, however, is of little or no importance, iu
consequence of being placed on the margin of abroad and navigable frith. Next the Forth, the Esk may be said to be the chief river ;
it is composed of two streams, which unite their waters below Dalkeith, and glide into the Forth at Musselburgh, The Leith, a valu-
able small river, takes it rise on the north side of the Poutlaud Hills, aud after receiving several rivulets, discharges its waters, after a
course of nineteen miles, into the Forth. The Almond, the most westerly stream, rises in the high grounds on the boarders of Lanark-
shire ; it is joined by the Briech Burn, in its way to the Forth, which it enters at Cramond.— Railways.— The shire of Edinburgh U
extensively interested in the system of railways, which radiate from Edinburgh. No town or considerable village iu tho county is now
destitute of the advantages of railway communication.
Civil Divisions, Representation, &c.~ This district became subject to the government of a sheriff prior to the reign of David I.
The office of sheriff of Edinburgh seems to have been at all times an appointment of great trust and dignity ; and from tho thirteenth to
the eighteenth century was filled by the heads of families of note in the shire and its vicinity. The county, which is divided into 82
parishes, is now governed and its affairs conducted by the usual number of functionaries, distributed over six districts. Besides
Edinburgh, the shire does not comprise any royal burghs, but possesses thrre of regality, namely, Musselburgh, Cauougate, nnd Ports-
burgh and the town of Leith. Its only burgh of barony is Dalkeith. The lord-lieutenant of the county is the Right Hon. the Earl of
R >sebery. The contributory burghs bolouting to this county represented in Parliament are Leith, Musselburgh, and P<.rtobello. The
county at large sends one member to Parliament, its present representative being the Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone). Up to the passing
of the Redistribution of Seat3 Bill, 1685, the city of Edinburgh returned two members, hut was then separated into four divisions and
civen two additional representatives. The gentlemen at present sitting are : — East Division, Robert Wallace, Esq.; West Division,
Thomas R. Buchanan, Esq.; Central Division, William M'Ewan, Esq.; South Division, tho Right Hon. Hugh C. E. Childers. Tho
parliamentary constituency of tho county numbered in 1887-8,18,019.
Bv the census returns presented to Government in 1871, the entire county contained a population of 15.%892 males, and 174,487
female*; total, 328,879; in 1881 the numbers were : males, 1S3,915 ; females, 205,249; total, 339, 161 ; exhibiting an increase over lfe71
Of 6(1,785. The valuation for 1887-88 (exclusive of railways and waterworks) was ,£554,406 ; and of railways and waterworks (exclusive of
portions within burghs), £119,630.

CALDER— MID, EAST, AND WEST.
MID-CALDBU is a pariah and village— the lattor 12 miles W.s.w.
from EdinburRh^andS^E. from Whitburn; pleasantly situated
on the roid from Glasgow to Edinburgh, on au eminence between
the water of Linnhouse, and the Almon-1 ; and Calder wood, which
is of considerable extent, overhangs it. The minerals in this pa: ish
consist of various beds of rich bituminous shale, from which r largo
quantity of paraffin oil and other chemical products are extracted
fit the different works. Coal abounds in the parish, and on the
estate of Calder House, the property of Lord Torphichen, is an
extensive bed of freestone, of excellent quality. The parish church
is a fine specimen of Gothic achitecture, enlarged and restored at
a coat of upwards of £3,000. It was originally fouuded by Duncan,
Earl ol Fife, in the early part of the thirteenth century, and was
rebuilt on tho original site by Peter Sandilauds, a scion of the noble
family of Torphichen, in 1541. A United Presbyterian chu'ch is the
only other place of worship. To the west of the village is Calder
Mouse, the seat of Lord Torphichen, where the picture of John Knox
is huug in the hall in which be first dispeused the sacrament of the
Lord's supper after the Reformation. The house of Graenbank, in
the vicinity, is celebrated as the birth-place of John Spottiswoode.
Archbishop of St. Andrews. Fairs are held in this village on the
second Tuesday in March, and Friday after second Tuesday in
October. Acreaco of the parish, 12,294. Population in 1881, 793;
of the village, 657.
East Calder is a small village, lying one mile e. from Mid-
Calder, on the soiith road from Edinburgh to Glasgow. It was
originally a parish of itself, but i* now conjoined with Kirknewton.
At tho west end of the village ai-e to be seen the ruins of the ancient
parish church, built by Randolph do Clere, in the twelfth century,
and indicated to St. Cuthbert. A United Presbyterian church, of
Gothic architecture, lias been erected in the village at a cost of
£2,000. There is also a Board school. Population in 1881, 734.
West Calder is a village in the rather extensive parish of its
name, the latter being about 10 miles in length and 5>£ in breadth.
Tho village is about 5 miles s.s.w. from MM-Calder, and 16}£ b.w.
from Edinburgh, ft contains Established, Free and United Presby-
terian churches and a Roman Catholic chapel. Until within the last
twenty years do trade of any importance was carried on ; but about
thai time Mr. James Young, the patentee of the paraffin oil, having
purchased several large properties in the parish, which contains
several beds of rich bituminous shale, erected oue of the largest
works in Great Britain for the manufacture of oil. In consequence
of these operations the parish has more than quadrupled its population
within the above period, and a new village has sprung up towards
the west. In the immediate vicinage, al a place called Castlo Craig,
are the traces of a Roman encampment. In 1881 the en tiro parish,
which has an area of 21,039 acres, had a population of 7,b'3l persons,
aud the village 2,291 of that number.

COLINTON, or Collinriton, is a village and parish, the latter lying
at the baBe of the' Pentland Hills, part of which it includeB.
The grounds rise beautifully from the vale of Corstorphine, and are

scenery, are 4 miles s.w. of Edinburgh. Bonally Tower, the seat of
the late Lord Cockbnrn, is in this parish, and is now tbe residence
of Mrs. Hodgson. Tbe manufacture cf paper is carried on exten-
sively, and tbe district abounds with limestone and freestone. On
the lands of Coniston, which lie to tbe east, are vestiges of a very
extenBive encampment, near which is a rude massive block of whin-
stone, called " Camuss tone," said to indicate the burial place of some
Danish commander. On these lands the fountain for the Edinburgh
water- cistern was first erected. Logan House Hill, in this parish is
a considerable eminence, rising upwards of 1,500 feet above the level
of the sea. Slatefoed is a village in this parish. Acreage of tbe
parish, 5,640. Population in 1881, 4,347.
The parish of Cuerie is bounded by Corstophine and Ratho on

the south. Through tbe low grounds run tbe water ofLeitb,and
on its northern bankB, 6 miles distant s.w. from Edinburgh, stands
the village of Cuebie, through which the road to Lanark passes.
The church is erected on a very commanding situation. The manu-
facture of paper and snuff prevails in this parish to some extent,
the former particularly. On the estate of Maleny, beyond Carrie,
and rising above the banks of the Leith, is Lennox Tower, anciently
the residence of tbe family of Lennox, as well aB the occasional one
of Wary Queen of Scots. At a short distance from it, on tbe opposite
bank ol the river are the ruins ot another undent edifice, once the
430
mansion of the Skenes, of Currie hill. The parish also contains the
house of Baberton, which is remarkable as having been used as a
hunting seat by royalty at two distant periods— firBt by James VI.
of Scotland, previous to his accession to the English throne, and
secondly by Charles X. of France, after his expulsion from his
dominions iD 1830. Acreage, 11,103. In 1881 the parish had a popu-
lation of 2,390.
Kirknewton, about nine miles s.w from Edinburgh, is a small
village and parish; the latter, which includes the abrogated paro-
chial division of Calder Clere, is bounded on the south and west by
Mid-Calder, on the east by Currie and Ratho, and on the north by
Slateford. In the burial ground of the church, which is about half
a mile distant from the village, lie interred the remains of the
celebrated Dr. William Culleu, who was proprietor of the estate of
Ormistcnhill, where he introduced, so early as the year 1758, an
improved mode of culture. The river Almond, the water of Leith,
and the gi-eat Glasgow road intersect the parish, which abounds
with excellent limestone, and contains some fine seats and pleasure
grounds ; one of these is called Meadowbank, once the residence of
a late senator of the College of Justice, entitled Lord Meadowhank,
who was one of the chief improvers of this neighbourhood. Popu-
lation of the village in 1881, 368.

CORSTORPHINE AND GOGAR.
CORSTORPHINE is a village and pariah, the latter, which com-
mences about two miles to the west of Edinburgh, presenting
on the whole, a remarkably level surface, the only eminences being
its cognomiual hills, not exceeding in altitude 470 feet above the
li vel of the sea. The southern side of these hills is beautifully
decorated with villas and well enclosed plantations. The whole of
the parish consists of rich arable land, part of which is cultivated
l»y agriculturists and market gardeners, and there are also many
dairy farms. The village of Corstorphine is 3 miles w. from Edin-
burgh, on the high road to Glasgow, in a very pleasant situation;
that of the church is particularly picturesque, and the building
itself is interesting from its antiquity and associations. The church
was not the original parish one, having been established in the year
1429, as aprovostry or Collegiate chui eh, which -rose into importance,
while the old parish church declined and finally fell into ruins. It
was founded by Sir Adam Forrester, and endowments were supplied
lty himself and afterwards by his widow, their son, Sir John
Furrester, also adding to the foundation. On the outer wall of the
church the arms of the Forresters are found in several places, and
tlie effigies of members of this family and their wives are carved in
stone in life-size, and occupy niches in the chancel of tbe church.
These and other memorials of a past age are still entire, and from
their antiquity and variety must be considered eminently worthy
of a visit. Tncre are Established nnd Free churches, and also a
Board school in the village, which also possesses a good subscription
library of over 2,003 volumes, which proves of great benefit to the
district. There is a station on the line of the North British Railway,
about half a mile from the village. Acreage of the parish, 3,634.
Population in 1831, 2,156, of which the village contained 952.
Gogar, formerly an independent pariah, is a pleasant hamlet in
the parish of Corstorphine, situated on the banks of the Gogar burn,
a tributary rivulet of the water of Leitb, 5 miles s.w. from Edin-
burgh. Here stood a church previous to the Reformation, the
interesting ruins of which still remain a source of attraction to tho
antiquary and tourist. There is a station on the lino of tho North
British Railway, about three-quarters of a mile from the village.

CRAMOND,
DAVIDSON'S MAINS, BLaCEHALL, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
CRAMOND is a village and parish, the latter partly in the county
of Edinburgh, and the remainder in Linlithgowshire, lying
on the south shore of the Frith of Forth. The western part of it is
intersected with the river Almond, which falls into the sea at a
creek, on tho oust side of which, on a declining bank, lios the village '
of Gramond, known to have been an important Roman station. On J
the opposite bank of tho Almond, on a craggy eminence, a fortifi- j
cation existed ; and from this tho name is derived — Car-Almond '.,
(changed to Cramond), signifying "the Castle on the Almond."!
A little below the village, on tho sands, stake nets are lixed for tho
fishery here; and opposite to tho mouth of the Almond, at a short
distance from the shore, is Cramond Island, a very pretty little
island rising with a gentle slope into a hill of moderate elevation.
Part of it is cultivated. Within the parish are the village of Cra-
mond Bridge, Davidson's Mains, and the port of Granton, which
latter will be found included with Edinburgh. Cramoud Bridge is
shunted on tho Almond river, which is hero crossed by a very line
stone bridge, connected with tho road from Edinburgh to South
Queensferry, five miles from the city. There are considerable iron
works established in this locality. The entire parish of Cramond
contains an area of 5,277 statute acres, and in 1881 had a population
of a.WM.

DALKEITH,
WITH THE PARISHES AND VILLAGES OF NEWBATTLE, NEWTON, AND MILLERHILL.
TAALKEITH is a busy and populous market town, a burgh of
\J barony, and a parish, sis miles south from Edinburgh, and is a
station on tbe Waverley line of the North British Railway. It
occupies an exceedingly delightful and dry situation, in a fertile
district, diversified with hill, dale, and wood, with the North and
South Esk flowing round the place. It is the moat important
landward town in the county, and has been long celebrated for its
weekly corn market, held on Thursday. Until a recent period this
market was the largest in Scotland, but since the (concentration of
so many railways was effected in the capital, the Edinburgh grain
market, has greatly exceeded in magnitude every other Scottish
market. Until the year 1854, the weekly market was held in the
open street, but since then it has been held in a covered building
near the east end of the town. This market place is one of the
finest and most cnmmodious structures of the kind in Scotland, tbe
large hall being 172 feet long, 50 feet wide and 45 feet high. It was
erected at a cost of near £4,000. Prior to the formation of the
Edinburgh and Hawick railway, the grain was all brought to the
market in carts, which on market day during tbe busiest season of
the year, lined all the streets of tbe town on both sides as closely as
they could be ranged ; but now the number ou the street with grain
is very insignificant, as only sample bags are scut to market ; sales
are made from these and the stock forwarded by rail to the buyer.
On this account, the streets now present little difference in
appearance between Thursday and other days of the week. The
progressive increase of the banking establishments in Dalkeith
may be considered as a fair exponent of its business importance.
The Commercial Banlt opened an agency here in 1810 ; the National
Bank in 1825; the Royal Bank in 1836; and the Edinburgh
and Leith afterwards ; *the Edinburgh and Glasgow in 1S39, but
which merged in the ClydeBdale in 1858. In 1839 a National
Security Savings Bank was established, which is well supported,
and has proved a great boon to the humble and frugal portion
of the community. There is also a well-conducted Penny
Bank, equally useful in its more limited sphere. The
district around Dalkeith abounds with coal, which is of excel-
lent quality, and is worked to a great extent. The Mushet iron
works afford employment to a large number of people, whilst Messrs.
Stewart Brothers, of the Eskbauk Carpet Works, give occupation
to upwards of a hundred hands. These, tgoether with its markets,
may be mentioned among the chief sources of the town's character-
istic animation and prosperity. There are, however, various other
agencies which operate in the same direction, as Mr. Dawson's brush
factory, Mr. Hope's brass works, Mr. Hurry's machine works.
Messrs. A. & W. Douglas's corn mills, and also Messrs. M'Lennau
and Urqubart's brewery, &c. Midlothian is famous for the excel-
lence of its oatmeal, and Dalkeith mills have long been identified
with the production of tbe best quality of this valuable and
wholesome article of national food. 16 is proper tn mention, too,
that Dalkeith owes not a little to the activity and enterprise of its
mercantile claBS, the amount of wholesale and retail business in
grocery, Ironmongery, and drapery establishments being probably
greater than in any other Scottish town of similar size. The town
has very much improved this last thirty years, and is being
gradually extended with excellent houses and cottages, enclosed in
neat gardens and luxurious shrubberies. The inhabitants suffered
formerly from deficiency of water, but an ample supply, of excellent
quality, has just (1888) been obtained within the burgh bounds by
boring, the quantity thus secured being 65,000 gallons every 24
hours. The Inundations of the commercial prosperity of Dalkeith
•were laid towards the beginning of the present century by the late
Mr. John Gray, merchant ; and the material advantages he
bestowed have been worthily followed up in other departments of
public and social progress and amelioration by its first provost, Mr.
Alexander Mitchell, of whom, and of Mr. Gray, it may be said that
they found Dalkeith "brick and left it marble."
The municipal management is vested in a board of twelve Com-
missioners, under the Police Improvement (Scotland) Act, who
have the power to assess and regulate local taxes — such as the
paving, lighting and water rates, &c. A sheriff's court is held iu
in the Masonic Hnll, for oases under the Small Debt Act and Certain
Debts Recovery Act, on the third Thursday of every month
.(September excepted), and a police court at the Police Barracks, ou
the second and fourth Saturdays of every month, and other days,
as cases may require. There are thirteen places of public worship,
namely two Established, one Episcopal, one Roman Catholic, three
United Presbvterian, one Free, one Congregational, two Wesleyan,
•one Baptist, and one Evangelical Union, or Morisonian. There are
three Board schools and several private ones. As indications of
social and literary activity, it may be mentioned that the Scientific
Association, which was formed iu 1835, continues with undimin-
ished spirit and success, and possesses a large and valuable library.
The great impulse to pauperism in Scotland by tbe Poor Law
Amendment Act of 1845 led here, as elsewhere, to the erection of a
workhouse, in order to furnish a test of poverty, and provide s
suitable refuge for the destitute and infirm. The Dalkeith Union
Workhouse- was the first of such houses in Scotland ; it was opened
in 1SJ9 for the poor of four parishes, but there are now twelve
parishes in combination. The cost of the building, which is capable
of accommodating 120 inmates, was .£4,058 18s. 10d., and this sum
with the interest was paid off in ten yearly instalments. Dalkeith
has been lighted with gas from almost the first introduction of that
illuminating power. The company, which was formed in 1827, had a
severe struggle for some years with expensive works and small
returns, but ultimately all difficulties were overcome, and the town
is now well supplied with cheap and excellent gas. In the neigh-
bourhood are tbe mansions and grounds of Newbattle, Melville, and
Dalhousie, belonging to the marquis of Lothian, Viscount Melville,
and tbe Marquis of Dalhousie ; whilst adjoining the town, and on the
southern bank of the North Esk, stands Dallieith House, the principal
seat of His Grace the Duke of Buccleuch. This building occupies
the site of an ancient castle, which was long in the possession of
the family of Douglas, and afterwards the frequent residence of the
Regent Morton duriog the minority of James VI., when it was
commonly a?id significantly called " the lion's den." The present
edifice, which was built by the family of Scott about the close of
the seventeenth century, consists of a body and two wings, with
ornaments of the Corinthian order in front, and may be termed
rather a good and substantial than an elegant house. The park
contains about 800 Scottish, or 1,000 English acres, surrouuded by
a stone wall, adorned with much fine wood, and beautified by tbe
winding of the two rivers Esk. The hall, the grand staircase, and
the several suites of apartments within are spacious, elegantly fur-
nished, and enriched by a valuable collection of paintings. His
Into Majesty George IV., on his visit to Scotland, sojournod at this
mausion ; and her present Majesty, Queen Victoria, has likewise
repeatedly honoured it with her presence. Dalkeith gives the
title of Earl to the eldest son of the Duke of Buccleuch. Fairs are
held annually on the first Thursday after Rutherglen (in May) for

Thursday in February, first Thursday in April, and second Thurs-
day in October for biting. Population of the parish, the acreage
of which is 2,344, in 1881, 7,707, and of the burgh, iucluding Esk-

Mit.lerhill is the principal village in the parish of Newton, and
is a station on the North British Railway. Population in 1881,
3S5.
Newbattle is a parish and small village beautifully situated about
a mile to the south of Dalkeith. It is watered by the South Esk,
and itbonuds in valuable coal, which was excavated for their ewn
use iu pre-reformatiou times by its proprietors, the Monks. Besides
its collieries, Newbattle possesses the important paperworks of
Messrs. R. Craig & Sous, who produce coloured paper of the very
best quality and give employment to a great many hands. Tbe site
of the ancient Cistercian Abbey is occupied by the seat of the
Marquis of Lothian, at present Secretary for Scotland, and it is
surrounded by some of the oldest and largest trees in the kingdom,
including a beech of extraordinary dimensions. The monastic
buildings were ruthlessly removed when the present mansion was
erected, and all that remains is part of the Gothic crypt, which
was spared as it could be turned to account in the basement of
the modern fabric. A few years ago the foundations of the old Abbey
Church were accidently discovered and laid baro, aud are left so
throughout their entire extent. The building, said to have been
very elegant, consistod of a long nave with bays and side aisles,
choir and central tower, almost ideutical in measurement with the
Abbey of Jedburgb,whicli also belongs to Lord Lothian. Like Dalkeith
Palace, Newbattle Abbey contains a great number of valuable
paintiugs, both ancient and modern. The present parish church
is a plain comfortable bnildiug, with stained-glass windows. The
amiable and pious Robert Leighton, afterwards Bishop or Dun-
blane, and Archbishop of Glasgow, was, when a Presbyterian,
minister of Newbattle from 1641 to 1652, and the small pulpit he
preached in has been iuuse by his successors from his time till the
present day. A mural tablet has been recently erected in the
church in memory of the good Archbishop. There'is a well-attended
parochial school, and at Newton Grange and Easthousos are hand-
some school premises, erected by the munificence of the Marquis of
Lothian, in which the colliers' children of the district are instructed.
Acreage, 5,225. Population iu 1881, 3,346.
Newton is a parish of some considerable extent, contiguous to
Dalkeith, having Lasswade aud Liherton ou the west and north, and
Inveresk on the east. Coal is obtained abundantly within the parish,
a large number of the inhabitants being employed in the mines.
There is a handsome church belonging to the parish, and some
useful schools, those for children of the colliers being well con-
ducted, and have a beneficial tendency. Acroage, 2,032. Population
in 1881, 1,307.

EDINBURGHSHIRE
GOREBRIDGE,
TEMPLE, HERIOT, BORTHWICK, FUSHIE 3RIDGE, STOBBS MILL, AND CARRINGTON.
GOREBRIDGE is a populous village in the parish of Temple, about
10 miles s.e. from Edinburgh and 4 s. from Dalkeith. It is a
station on the Edinburgh and Hawick branch of the North British
Railway. Sixty years ago there were only a few houses here ; now,
through the opening of extensive coalfields adjacent, and also the
railway, it has become a place of importance. Tbe places of wor-
ship in the village are the Free and an United Presbyterian chiirch.
A new Free church has been erected at a cost of about £1,400.
Gorebridge is iu the quoad sacra parish of Stobhill, where a new
church has been built at a cost of £2,2011. The parish church is at
the village of Temple, about three miles distant. The shops are
lighted with gas, supplied by a public company. The first works for
the manufacture of gunpowder in Scotland were established here.
A library has recently been founded by Robert Dnndas, Esq. of
Arniston, for the use of the village and neighbourhood, and there is
also a public hall belonging to the same gentleman. Population iu
1881,1,148.
Temple parish, Dear the head of the South Esk, is bounded on the
east by Borthwick, on the south by Heriot, on the west by Edlestou
and Penicuick, and ou the north by Carrington. The viliage,wbich
is about ten miles from Edinburgh, is situated on rising ground on
the bankB of the Giadhouse water, which falls into the South Esk,
a short way below. It has an old Gothic church (now in raius),
founded by King David I. for Templars ; the new church (also
Gothic) was built in 1830. The parish, which is chiefly of a hilly
nature, and containing much moorish and pasture laud, and an
area of 19,479 acres, had iu 1881 a population of 1,551.
Heriot parish is ten miles in length, six iu breadth, and situate
sixteen miles from the capital, and within the parish is a station on
the Edinburgh and Hawick branch of the North British Railway.
The surface of the land in this district iB generally unevou ; on tbe
tanks of the Gala and Heriot waters it is fertile. These two streams
take their rise in the Muirfoot hills here, and afford fine sport to the>
angler. There are the remains of several ancient fortifications,
most of them of a Circular form, to be seen iu the neighbourhood.
The name of tbe parish imports the fine paid to the lord of the manor
by a tenant. A fair is held at the head of Gala water ou the first
Friday after Whit Sunday for sheep and lambs. The parish encloses
an area of 15,038 acres, with a population in 1881 of 429.
Borthwick parish lies about twelve miles from Edinburgh, on
the Carlisle road. Near tbe church, which is beautifully situated
on an eminence, are the ruins of Borthwick Castle, erected in 1436
by Lord Borthwick. These interesting remains, which are only
two miles west from Crichton, are eminently worthy of beiug visited
by the tourist. The parish has been the birthplace of several
highly distinguished men, among whom may be enumerated
Principal Robertson and Dundas of Arniston. Acreage of the parish,
9,806. Population in 1881, 1,741.
Foshte Bridge is a neat village, in the parish of and about on©
mile from Borthwick and five from Dalkeith. At this village is a
station on the line above mentioned. About a mile to the north is
the village of Stobes Mill, lying partly in Borthwick parish and
partlyin that of Temple.
Carrington is a small parish, lying in the southern part of the
county, on the descending braes, which, at their summit, divide the
district from the wilds of Peebles-shire. The villlage is pleasantly
situated on elevated land, nine and a half miles south-east from
Edinburgh, and consists of but a few houses and the kirk. Though
not unfavourable to the growth of corn, the soil is more particularly
adapted to that of the potato and green crops; coal is wrought
in abundance, and there is also an indication of ironstone. Prior
to the Reformation this parish had the valuable peculiarity of
being a rectory independent of any monastery. The parish embraces
an area of 4,403 acres, and in 1881 had a population of 606.

LASSWADE,
BONNYRIGG, LIBEETON, GILMERTON, GREENEND, LOANHEAD, EOSLIN, AND ROSEWELL.
LASSWADE is a small neat village ami parish, the former six miles
s. of Edinburgh and two s.w. from Dalkeith, delightfully
situated on both sides of the North Esk, which is here crossed by a
good stone bridge. With its handsome modern church crowning the
height on the north bank of the stream.and its modest rural cottages
below, embosomed iu luxuriant gardens and umbrageous trees, it
mav be esteemed one of the prettiest and most picturesque villages
in Scotland. Sir Walter Scott spent the first years of Mis married
life in a neat cottage a little apart from the village. John Clerk, of
Eldln, author of a famous work on naval subjects, and Lord Eldin,
resided in Lasswade ; and Thomas de Qnincey, tho author of the
"Life of an Opium Eater," and many other works, lived in a cottage
near Polton for some years. Within the last thirty years this place
has been greatly improved by the erection of many substantial
dwellings, and the openingof several manufacturing establishments;
among the latter are four paper mills. Thepaper Mills, belonging
to Messrs. Annandale & Sou, Limited, are extensive works for making
papers of'various qualities. There are two other firms in Lasswade,
and one in Polton engaged in tho manufacture of paper. The North
Esk runs through the whole length of the parish, and on its banks
are presented a continuous succession of charming seats, in the
most inviting situations, such as Melville Castle, Whitehill, Polton,
to which Scott crossed to visit Constable, whom he called "the Napo-
leon of the printing trade," and Hawthorndcn— tho latter remark-
able for having belonged to Drummond, the poet and historian, and
for the caves under it. These caves are three iu number ; the
largest is twelve feet wide at tho eutrance,gradually tapering inwards;
the height is six feet, aud the length ninety ; abovo there is a tunnel
cut for the admission of the light and air ; in a recess there is a
well several fathoms deep. These caves are said to have afforded
shelter to the Scots in turbulent timeB. At a little distance staud
the ruin of Roslin castle ; aud adjacent is Hoslin chapel, one of the
most entire and beautiful pieces of Gothic architecture now rornain-
ine in Sootland. There are also traces of two other religious founda-
tions in the village, St. Aun's and St. Leonard's. In the cemetery of
Lasswade church are interred the remains of Drummoud, the poet
before mentioned ; and au aisle of the old structure is appropriated
as a burial vault for the noble family of Melville, and here lie the
remains of the first viscount of that title whose prominent situation,
during the ministry of Mr. Pitt, will still be recollected. The parish,
which embi aces au area of 10,678 acres, iu 1881 nada populatiou of
8 872. of which tl>e village contaiued 1,232.
' Rosewell is arising village iu the parish Lasswade, situated about
four miles s.w. from Dalkeith, and two s.w. from Bonnyrigg. A neat
church of the establishment, a public school, and a commodious
hall are situated in the village. The Peebles Railway pasBes the
village about balf a mile distant, there being a junction at Hawthorn-
den for Penicuick district. In the neighbourhood there is an
abundance of coal, and the manufacture of fire-clay goods and
mineral oils is carried on to a considerable extent. Gorton House,
overlooking the Esk, wasa favourite residence of Christopher North-
Population in 1881, 1,118.
The pariBh of Liberton includes three villages of its name— Upper
(or Over) Liberton, Liberton Kirk, and Nether Liberton, with
Gilmerton aud Gheenend— all of great antiquity, butnone of them
now of extensive importance. The kirk town is about three miles s.
from the capital, and the like distance N.w. from Dalkeith and
440
Lasswade. Gilmerton, the most considerable village in the parish,
is situated about midway between Edinburgh and Dalkeith. There
are two Free churches in the parish, and the original " Ragged "
school, founded by the late Dr. Guthrie, has been removed to band-
some and extensive premises near the parish church. There is a
neat church or chapel of ease to Liberton in the village. The
inhabitants are for the most part engaged in the adjacent collieries.
Greonend village is about four miles n. from Lasswade, on the road
to Edinburgh. The old church of Liberton, which was of Gothic
architecture, survived till a recent date, when it was removed to
make way for the present handsome semi-Gothic structure, whose
square turrets aud piunacles can be seen at a great distance ; an
excellent manse is adjacent, and the village is contiguous. The
parish, which lies at the base of the Peotland Hills, is exceedingly
populous; and its mines of coal and its lime works are most exten-
sive and valuable. The celebrated cave, dug by Goorge Paterson, a
blacksmith, out of the solid rock, was finished in 1724, after five
years' hard labour. Iu this cave are several apartments with beds,
a table with a large punch bowl, all formed from the sameunmalleable
material ; there are also a smith's forge, a well, aud a washing house.
Here Paterson lived several years, and here he died about 1797.
Craigmillar Castle, sometime a favourite residence of Queen Mary,
stands on rising ground of moderate elevation, and commands a
beautiful and extensive prospect over tho surrounding country. By
the extension of Edinburgh towards the south a large number of
handsome villas have been erected in this neighbourhood, and the
recently constructed Suburban railway, which encircles Edinburgh
in its outskirts, bas two stations in Liberton, and promises to add
greatly to its population and manufactures. Large quarries of lime-
I stone are worked at Burdiehouse, and those of freestone and whin-
1 stone in various parts employ many persons. Liberton parish
embraces an area of (3,617 acres, and in 18S1 contained a populatiou
of 6,026.
Bonnyrigg is a large and rising village in the parish of Cockpen,
situated six miles s. from Edinburgh, aud two s.w. from Dalkeith,
There is a handsome Free church, also two large and commodious
schools, with an attendance of about 250 pupils in each. In the
village is a Town Hall, capable of holding about six hundred persons,
a bowling green, which is largely frequented by the inhabitants and
others, and a large public park ; and in tho neighbourhood is Dalhousie
Castle, the grounds of which include those of the famous " Laird
o' Cockpen," well known in Scottish song. There are two railway
stations, viz : — Broomieknowe, on the Esk Valley Railway, and
Bouuyrigg, on the Peebles Railway. Carpet weaving is carried on to a
very considerable extent, many hands being employed in the manu-
facture of this very nseful article ; and in tho immediate neighbour-
hood there are several coal mines. Broomieknowe, which is apart
of the village, being iu close proximity thereto, is resorted to by a
large number of summer visitors. The Esk Valley, which is admired
by all who vi.sit it, can be seen from here to great advantage, and
the view is open for miles around. Population in 1881, 2,164.
Loanhead is a largo and rising village in the parish of Lasswade,
one mile w. from that town, rather more than two s. from Liberton,
and five s.e. from Edinburgh. It has recently been erected into a
distinct parish, and has now a handsomely built established church,
and the Free, the Reformed Presbyterian, and the Roman Catholic
bodies have each a place of worship. The village contains many
DIRECTORY

EDINBURGHSHIRE
respectable houses, and in tbe neighbourhood several families of
distinction are resident. A considerable proportion of the popu-
lation Is employed in the oil works and collieries, and some in the
neighbouring paper mills. The inhabitants have the advantage of
being well supplied with water, which is conveyed to their houses
by pipes. A station on the Hoslin aud Glencorao line is situated
here. Population in 1831, 2,493
Roslin is a small village aud parish, the latter separated from
Lasswade some years ago, and erected into a distinct parish of
itself. Besides the Established church, there is a handsome Free
church. The village is reached by a cross road lending southward
from the line betwixt Peebles and Edinburgh, distant from Edin-
burgh seven miles s., from Lasswade two and a half s.w., and from
Loanhoad two miles in the Hame direction. It is much visited by
tourists and parties from the metropolis, and, indeed, from all parts,
both on account of the beauties of the scenery aud of the ruins of
Kosliu Castle and its chapel. These stand south from tbe village,
tbe former on tbe bank of the North Esk. The chapel is one of the
most perfect specimens of Gothic architecture that time has spared
in this part of the kingdom. These interesting relics, in connection
with the lovliness of the district with which they are surrounded,
form an attraction that invariably delights the visitor of cultivated
taste and the admirer of the picturesque and beautiful. Agriculture
is the prevailing occupation of the inhabitants of the parish ; hut
thero are tho Roslin Gunpowder Mills and the extensive carpet works
of Messrs. Henry Widnell & Co. Besides Hoslin station on the
branch line from Edinburgh to Glencorse, thero are stations called
Rosslyn Castle and Koslin Lee on tbe other side of the valley. Omni-
buses ply during the summer from Edinburgh, and the walk by the
vallev of the Esk to Hawthorndeu is exceedingly picturesque.
Population of the village in 1881, 613.

MUSSELBURGH,
WITH THE PARISH OF INVERESK, AND THE VILLAGES OF WEST PANS, LEVENHALL, WALLYFORD, INVERESK,
DEANTOWN, COWPIT3, FISHERUOW, MONKTONHALL, OLD CRAIGHALL, NEW CRAIGHALL AND, BRUNSTANE.
MUSSELBURGH is a town of great antiquity, ranking amongst
the oldest in Scotland ; it is a burgh of regality, represented in
Parliament and the Convention of Royal Bui'ghs ; and possesses
common (rood of an estimated value of upwards of £40,000. It oc-
cupies a level expanse upon the south shore of the Firth of Forth,
6 miles e. from Edinburgh. The river Esk intersects the town,
dividing it into nearly two equal parts, that on its eastern bunk
being locally designated Musselburgh, and that on its western
Fisherrow. The former name ia derived from cxtensivo muBsel
heds which extended along the beach; the latter from a row of
fishermen's houses, formerly styled Fish Raw. The site of Mussel-
burgh is generally acknowledged to be that of an ancient sea level ;
hence the sub-soil is of sand and gravel. The situation is regarded
as so favourable to health that a sanitorium was established here
for the benefit of invalided soldiers during the wars with Napoleon
I, Satisfied with the results, the Government desired to make the
town a permanent military centre, and opened negotiations for the
acquisition of a site whereon to erect cavalry barracks. The then
authorities adopting a hostile attitude, the proposal was withdrawu,
the Piershile site secured, and the entire military establishment
here was abandoned.
As early as the first century, Musselburgh was a seat of population,
When the Romans invaded Britain they established themselves in
this locality, planting a colonia upon the rising ground at Iuveresk.
Where the church now stands an altar was erected to Appollo, the
sun god, and their praetorium was in the adjaceut grounds of In-
veresk House. Towards the close of the last century an interesting
discovery was made of the remainsof a Roman villa, which afforded
conclusive evidence that its occupant, the commander of this
station, must have been an officer <>f high rank, affluent and noble,
showing the importance of the post he held in tiio Imperial estima-
tion. Doubtless he was one who sent his reports direct to, and re
ceived his orders direct from, the Eternal City. During the Romau
occupation roads were made, bridges built, harbours constructed,
order established, and around the protection tliis colony afforded it
is needless to say, peaco-loving people gladly settled. Not till the
seventh century, however, do we find authentic history from which
to glean information. At that period Musselburgh obtain a notice
in the Saxon chronicles as Exkmuthc of the Northumbrians, whose
territory extended from the Humher to the Forth. It is worthy of
remark that this name, given twelve centuries ago, has its exact
equivalent in Iuveresk, i. e., mouth of Eak, the present name of the
parish. In earliest Scottish records mention is made of the two
manors of Little Inveresk and Great Inveresk. Malcolm Conmore
ami his consort, Queen Margaret, whose chapel in Edinburgh Castle
has been restored by command of Queen Victoria, and is the olde&t
building of which the Scottish metropolis can boast, gifted the
manor of Little Inveresk to the monks of Dumfurmliue. Their son,
David I., confirmed this, and gave in addition Greater Inveresk,
which included the burgh and port of Musselburgh. From the
baronial jurisdiction and extended powers then conferred npon the
abbots of Dumfermline the burghal rights and privileges had begin-
ning, and thecommuuity thus enjoying the then all-powerful pro-
tection of the Church obtained a considerable degree of commercial
prosperity. The importance the place had acquired before the end
of the twelfth century is evident from the Scottish nobles having
assembled here in 1201 to take the oath of fidelity to Alexander II.,
infant son of William the Lion. Until the Reformation it continued
a burgh of regality, belonging to Dumfermline Abbey ; Lord Chan-
cellor Maitland, of Thirlstano, then beeame the Superior, and it
still pays a small annual sum in name of few duty to the Duke of
Buccleuch, whose ancestress, Anne, Dnchess of Monmouth, acquired
right thereto about the beginning of last century. The latest at-
tempt to extort feudal homagefrom the magistrates, as representing
the townspeople, was in 1702, at the instance of Sir Robert Dickson,
of Smerton, and was successfully resisted upon the ground that
the charters granted to the burgh freed them of any such acknow-
ledgments. In 1380 the Earl of Murray, the Regent during the
minority of Robert the Bruce's son, appointed Roger of Fawside,
whose castle, now in ruins, stands on the border of the parish,
Ambassador to the English Court. Two years later the Regent was
taken ill at Musselburgh, and lodged in the best house which the
town afforded. Situated at the east end of the south side of High
street behind the present Episcopal chapel, it was then unenclosed ;
and during his illness the burgesses maintained a regular guard
upon the house to testify their respect for so illustrious a guest.
This illness terminated fatally, but so deep an impression did the
courtesy of the burgesses make upon the Earl of Mar, Randolph's
cousin and successor in the Regency, that in 1340 he granted the
town its first charter, applied to it the term " honest town"— a
designation which it still retains, and has as its motto Honestas.
After the disastrous battle of Pinkie, in 1547, this charter, with the
whole of the burgh records, were ruthlessly destroyed by the Duke of
Somerset; but in 1562 Robert Pitcairn, commendator of Dunferm-
line, executed another, affirming the ancient rights and privileges
of the burgh. This charter is still extant, and has been ratified and
confirmed by subsequent charters and Acts of Parliament, more
particularly by one from John, Duke of Lauderdale, dated 1670, in
which all former grants in favour of the burgh are acknowledged.
In the year 1632 it was erected into a royal burgh by charter under
the great seal, which excited the jealousy of the magistrates of
Edinburgh, who contrived to obtain a reduction of the charter that
year.
Musselburgh iB governed by a provost, three bailies, a treasurer,
and seven councillor*, elected according to the provisions of the
Burgh Reform Act. The burgh unites with Leith, Newhaven and
IVrtohello (usually called the Leith burghs) in returning one member
( n Parliament, the gentleman at present sitting being M. Ferguson,
444
Esq. The magistrates are empowered to hold a court of record, and
to grant enfeoffments. Their jurisdiction extends two and a half
miles along the shore, from the Magdalen bridge rivulet on the west
to Ravenshaugh streamlet on the east, which at that locality is the
boundary with Haddingtonshire ; but the magistrates possess no
jurisdiction over Inveresk village, which is included within the
county. The town consists of two streets in the direction nearly
east and west; the main, or High street, exteuds from the bridge
over the E^gk on the west to the beautiful enclosures of Loretto and
Pinkie on the east, and is on the great road from Edinbureh to
Berwick and London. Parallel to the High street is the Mill hill,
which leads from the Esk to the London road, at the entrance to
the Links and Loretto grounds. A street known as Newbigging
extends south from nearly the centre of the town opposite the cross,
and leads directly to Inveresk, a quarter of a mile inland. The
town contains a few minor streets and alleys. The only public
edifice is the Town House, occupying an angle in the High street, a
substantial and commodious edifice, including au Assembly room,
council chamber, offices for the town clerk, town chamberlain, burgh
surveyor, and constabulary quarters. Attached to the building is a
clock tower with slated spire of quaint Flemish design. The clock
was a cift to the town from the Dutch States in 1496, a century and
a half before the pendulum was invented, and its working parts are
still in such wonderful preservation that it may not improbably
remain in serviceable condition for centuries to come. At that time
a considerable import and export trade was carried on, and so
cordial wore the relationships thus formed that this enduring
testimony to the friendship of the Dutch was sent here. In front of
the municipal offices is the town cross, a square pedestal, within
which is a disused draw well, surmounted by a stone pillar carrying
a unicorn bearing a shield with the town's arms, three mussels and
three anchors, arranged alternately. Connected with the Town
House is the gaol, now used, since the passing of the [Prison Act, as
a temporary place of confinement for petty offenders. This prison
is said to have been erected about 1690, from the materials of the
ruinous chapel of LoreUo. At the east end of Musselburgh, near
the Links, are the scattered buildings and fields which appertain to
the now well-known school of Loretto. The school house occupies
the site of a monastery which was originally an offshoot from the
castle of Our Lady of Loretto in Italy, and became a minor monas-
tery of Dunfermline during the twelfth century. In the middle of
the sixteenth century a pretended miracle, wrought by the monks,
was exposed by Colville, a Kinro-s-shire laird. Tlie populace, hating
the monks, and being enraged at the deception, reduced the
buildings to ruins and dispersed their inmates, for which the town
used to be annually cursed by the Pope. After this the property
fell into the bands of the Landerdnle family, whose monogram may
still be seen over the door of an old vault, and it was afterwards
bought by the celebrated Lord Clive, who erected a considerable
part of the present building. In 1829 it was converted into a pre-
paratory school by the late Rev. Dr. Langhorne, but gradually
changed its type, and about thirteen years since it took rank as a
public school, being especially noted for its proficiency in athletic
games and choral singing. Its choir is probably the most powerful
in Scotland, having, in fact, too much volume for the present tem-
porary chapel.
The extensive common, known as Musselburgh Links, has long
been -in deserved repute as a golfing ground, and in its immediate
proximity the Royal Musselburgh Coif Club, the Honourable
Company of Edinburgh Golfers, the Edinburgh Burgess Golf Society
and the Bruntsfield G-df Club havo erected handsome and com-
modious club houses. Once a year the Royal Company of Archers
resort hither to compete for the massive Musselburgh silver arrow
— one of its most valued trophies. This competition was first
instituted in the sixteenth century, and is considered to date back
to a time when proficiency in the use of the bow was regarded of as
grtat national importance as excellence in rirle shooting is now.
This arrow has a vast number of gold and silver medals, which have
been attached by its respective winners, and is anunatly returned to
the town that it may again be offered for competition. When the
friendly contest upon the Links has decided who is victor, the
archers entertain the magistrates to dinner, and they in return
present a riddle of claret, in accordance with an ancient custom.
The Edinburgh race meeting is held here annually, and the races of
the Royal Caledonian Hunt at intervals of three years.
Cromwell quartered his infantry on Musselburgh Links in 1650,
before the battle of Dunbar, his own tent having been placed upon
an elevated part nearly opposite Linkfield House. He took up
residence in Inveresk House for a short time, and the apartment is
still shown which was used as orderly room, and in which some
court-martialB are said to have been held. His cavalry were quar-
tered atlnveresk, their horses stabled in the church, and his cannon
planted upon the battery mound in the churchyard which had been
cast up by Somerset in the reign of Edward VI. Skirting Mussel-
burgh Links on the south are the fine villas of Linkfield, Woodside.
Linkfield House and Victoria and Albert terraces; and at the
eastern extremity the attractive suburb of Levenhall, including
Buccleuch Park, Hope Place and West Pans— a seaside resort which
is yearly becoming more and more popular
The streets of the town are of greater width than in most old
country burghs, and are well paved with whin.stoue blocks. The
drainage system has been efficiently carried nut, and the water
supply derived from the i\ioorfoots,is ample and excellent. The town
is lighted with gas by a company established in 1831, whose works
are at the north-west corner of the Links near the river mouth.
Branches of the Royat Bank of Scotland, the Commercial Bank of
Scotlaud, Limited, and the Natioual Bank of Scotland, Limited, are
in operation here. There are several literary, benevolent and

religious societies ; golf, bowling, cycling, tennis, cricket and football
clubs; there is also a battery of the Mid-Lottmn Coast Artillery
Volunteers and a company of the 6th Volunteer Battalion Royal
Scots, Lothian Regiment. Lifo in Musselburgh 60 years since lias
been delightfully described by Delta in the pages of " Mansio Waugh,"
while Mrs. Oliphant, in " Alioford," no less successfully deals with
incidonts at Wallyford"; and it is well known that some of the
characters intoduoed by Sir Walter Scott in " The Antiquary " were
picked up when he was quartered here with the Edinburgh Light
Horse Volunteers. The Esk is crossed by six bridges : one of wood
upon iron pillars and beams, at the lower ford; another of iron at
the middle ford, for foot passengers only ; the new stone bridge of
five elliptical arches, designed by Rennie, the famous engineer.whosa
portrait is hung in the council chamber ; the old stone bridge, up to
the beginning of this century the chief artery of communication
between Edinburgh, Berwick and Loudon, now disused for vehicular
traffic ; the iron girder railway bridge on the North British Railway
Musselburgh branch ; the stone railway bridge carrying the N.B.R.
main line to London ; and the Cowpits wood brido for foot passengers
near Dalkeith policies. The old bridge, a venerable structure of
three arches, erroneously supposed to be of Roman origin, was built
by Lady Jane Hepburn, wife of the then Lord Seton, an ances-
tress of the Earls of Wintoo, and grand-aunt of the notorious Earl
of Both well, associated wiLh tbe history of the unhappy
Queen Mary. Upon the top of one of tbe buttresses may
Btill be seen the iron fastenings to which the gateway for its
defence was attached. The roadway is high and narrow and is now
approached by a flight of steps at either end. Across it the Scottish
army passed after the battle of Pinkie, when Lord Graham, eldest
son of the Earl of Montrose, aud others were killed on it by cannon
shot from the English fleet anchored at the river mouth ; and across
it Queen Mary, Prince Charles Stewart and many more of noble and
royal rank must have passed. Nor has the burgh been without royal
visits during the present reign. Her Majesty the Queen, the Priuce of
Wales, and the Duke of Connangbt have at different times honoured
it with their presence, and the Princes have enjoyed playing golf
upon its links. Adjoining the old stone bridge is the commodious
terminal station of the Musselburgh branch of the North British
Railway, with every suitable accommodation for the extensive, some-
times exceptionally heavy, traffic to be dealt with. The approach to
High street from the station is through a line avenue of trees called
the Mall. Near the station aud connected to it by a private railway,
are the Patent Fishing Net Works of Messrs. Stuart, and the mills of
the Inveresk Paper Company. Upon the death of Mr. James Pater-
son, the inventor of an ingeniously constructed loom capable of
producing fishing nets equal to those made by hand, Messrs. Stuart
acquired his factory and patent rights. With such energy and
success did they conduct the concern that it was soon found
necessary to erect the present large and handsome works. Tbe
buildings, detached for security in case of fire, occupy four sides of
a parallelogram the shorter ends being occupied by the cotton mill
and the warehouses. The whole are tastefully designed. The cotton
mill has four colossal symbolic statues, executed in freestone, by
Ritchie, an eminent local sculptor, and the office is so placed as to
command an outlook upon all parts of the establishment. The centre
area is pleasingly treated as an ornamental garden with fountain
and Bhrubbery. Within the works the entire processes are carried
on to convert raw hemp and cotton into twine and finished nets. The
product is sent out ready for use at every important fishing station
in the world, from Anstruther to tbe Antipodes ; from the pilchard
fisheries of Cornwall to the salmon reaches of the Columbia. All the
patent machinery used iu the manufacture is made by the firm, who
keep a regular staff of foundrymon and mechanics for this purpose.
Connected with the mills are villa residences for the managers and
heads of departments, and commodious cottage dwellings for a num-
ber of the workpeople. In addition to these works the firm have
another large factory at Buckhaven, Fife, similarly employed. Ad-
joining this establishment are the very extensive paper mills of the
Inveresk Paper Company, which give employment to a large number
of hands, and turn out enormous quantities of high-class writing,
printing and enamelled papers. The chimney of these mills is 250
feet in height and carries off all offensive and chemical vapours
arising in the manufaoture. The public pathway alongside the
works is maintained in admirable condition by tbe company, who
have also with praiseworthy liberality considerably embellished
the river bank by judiciouB tree planting. Besides these indus-
tries, two large breweries, malting barley, seed crushing, tanning
and currying leather, the manufacture of confectionery, pottery-
wate, salt, skin mats, brick aud tile making and boat building
are carried on.
The places of worship in Inveresk parish, including Musselburgh ,
Fisherrow, and New Craig Hall, &c, are detailed in a list appended
to the Directory of the town. The parish church occupies the sum-
mit of the hill of Inveresk, and is a large square edifice without any
architectural pretensions. It is a conspicuous objeot in all direc-
tions, and its lofty and elegant spire is a landmark in the naviga-
tion of the Firth of Forth. Here has been in all probability a place
of worship since the first century, where the Roman legionaries
worshipped the sun god, and indulged in Baccanalian revelry ; the
rites of heathenism gave place to the worship of the Most High.
In the middle ages the church of St. Michael, of Nonnan-G-othic"
style, occupied this site, and from pre-Reformatiou times up to tbs
present century was the parish church of Inveresk — the church of
Williamson, of Coult, of BlaeUadder and Carlyle-Carlyle, the friond
and companion of Home and Douglas, of Grange and Drummore —
the scholar, the wit, the gentleman, Cavlyle, the illustrious Jupiter,
whose remains rest beneath the shadow of thopresent church which
he laboured earnestly and well to have erected. Iu the churchyard
are the rpiuains of many naval and military heroes, and here also
is the grave of David Macbeth Moir, the celebrated poet " Delta,"
to whose memory a handsome monument id erected at the top of
High street. Musselburgh has long been distinguished for its
schools— among which the most conspicuous is the Burgh Gram-
mar School ; thero is an English burgh school in Musselburgh, and
another in Fisherrow ; these schools are now under the coutrol of
the School Board. In 1878, the ratable value of Musselburgh was
£23,000, which had increased to .£29,000 iu 1883. The population of
the burgh in 1881, was 7,866; but last year (1888), it was ostimatod
at 11,000.
FiSHtfitiiow, consisting of four parallel streets, is connected with
Musselburgh by tbe bridges previously noticed, and both are muni-
cipally, politically, and locally one town or burgh, under the solo
jurisdiction of the provost, magistrates, and town council of Mussel-
burgh. The small harbour is at the west end of Fisherrow, and is
under the control of commissioners. A large sum has been expended
in erecting and improving the piers, but the harbour is tidal, tbe
access shallow, and can never admit vessels of any considerable
tonnage. The custom house, connected with that of Leitli, is near
tho harbour. A portion of the inhabitants of Fisherrow are fisher-
men, and the produce of their industry is conveyed by rail to Edin-
burgh aud disposed of by their wives and daughters. As a class
these fisher folks are hardy, industrious, frugal and well behaved.
North Esk Lodge and New field {connected with the Loretto school),
the villas of Eskbank, Rangitikei, Spring Cottage, Spring Gardens,
Springbank, Mollends House, Cample House, Olive Bank, Stoney-
hunk, and Stoneyhill are iu this part of the town. Contiguous to
Fisherrow Links are the public slaughter houses, constructed upon
the most approved plan and with every modern appliance carefully
introduced. Tho village of Inveresk is so pleasant that it has often
been designated the Montpelier of Scotland. It consists chiefly of
elegant and substantial mansions and villas, with beautiful grounds
surrounding them.
Deantown and Cowpits are colliery villages further south.
Pinkie House is delightfully situated in extensive policies, with fiue
old trees, and is admittedly one of the best specimens of an old
Scottish manor house in the county. Long the country residence of
the Abbots of Dunfermline, it has many historical associations
eounected with it ; and its turretted tower and much admired Gothic
fountain are perhaps the portions of greatest antiquity and interest.
The battlefield of Pinkie is situated about a mile south of Pinkie
House, and overlooking it a mile and a half further off is Carberry
hill, celebrated for the surrender of Queen Mary to the confederated,
nobility in 1567, and where she finally parted with Bothwell. Near,
is the line mansion of Carberry Tower. Numerous villas adorn the
vicinity of Musselburgh. New Hailes, a fine mansion, half a mile
Bouth-west from Fisherrow, was the seat of Sir David Dalrymple,
Bart., Lord Hailes, distinguished as tbe great restorer of Scottish
history and antiquities. He died in this mansion, in which his
valuable library is carefully preserved. This house is now occupied
by, and is the property of Sir Charles Dalrymple, Bart., m.p. In
this parish are found limestone, freestone, and coal, tbe latter par-
ticularly in abundance. From the higher grounds to the south most
extensive views are to be obtained, reaching from Ben Lomond,
Ben Ledi and Bon Voirlich, or the west to tbe German Ocean, and
from the Grampians, Ochils, and Loinonds to the Pentlands, Moor-
foots, the Lammermuirs, the Firth of Forth, and Fife coast, forming
the foreground of the panorama. The entire parish of Inveresk
embraces an area of 5,155 acres, and in 1831 had a population of
10,587.
Munkton-Hall, a small village in the parish of Inveresk, is of
some little note in the annals of Scottish warfare, as on the eve of
the battle of Pinkie the army lay around this village ; and here a
sort of Parliament was held by Governor Arran, at which an act
was passed providing that the nearest heir of any churchman
who should fall in the ensuing battle should have the gift of
his benefice.
New Craig Hall, or Niddrie, is a mining village, situated about
a mile west from Fisherrow. The colliery works of the Niddrie and
Benhar Coal Company are a short distance further.
Brunstane, or Brunstane Mills, is a hamlet situated on the road
from Musselburgh to Edinburgh, distant from the latter about four
miles. Brunstane Castle, or House, which stands on high ground
to the west, was formerly the patrimonial residence of the family
of Creichton, who took an active share in the Reformation. la
Brunstane and Ormistou Castles, John Knox aud other Reformers
always found a welcome aud a shelter. At a later period of Scot-
tish history, Brunstane was occupied by a very different person — ■
namely, John, Duke of Lauderdale, to whose memory a tablet may
be seen in the west vestibule of Inveresk church ; it is now tenanted
by a private family.

along with Heriot, which see). The principal street is broad aud
Rtraight, aud the houses, which are mostly of one storey, are well
built. The surrounding country abounds with beautiful scenery,
and several seats of the gentry contribute iu oruameuting the
district. Population of the village in 1881, 583.

PENICUIK,
GLENCORSE, AUCH1NDINNY, GREENLAW, AND MILTON BRIDGE.
PENICUIK is a parish in the county of Mid-Lothian, and on tho
borders of Peebles -shire. The parish extends from eleven to
twelve miles in length, and six in breadth, and is watered by the
North Esk, which runs its whole extent. Tiie name Penicuik is of
Celtic etymology, and signifies "the hill of the Cuckoo.1' Along
its northern border, the parish includes a considerable part of the
Pentland Hills, on which are pastured numerous nocks of sheep.
The southern portion is more level, and the soil is various, hut for
some years past dairy farming has been engaged in to a consider-
able extent on several of the farms. The principal industry is the
manufacture of paper, which is carried on with great enterprise at
Valleyfleld Mills by Messrs. A. Cowan & Sons, and at Esk Mills by
Messrs. J. Brown & Co. Tho mills of Valley lie Id are tho largest
in this part of the country, and there both printing and
writing papers are manufactured, thus furnishing employment
for a largo number oT hands. In tho beginning of this century these
mills had beou acquired by Government for the reception of 5,000
French prisoners of war. During the years the prison ore were
located at Valleyfleld, some 300 died ami were buried in th^ grounds,
and to their memory a handsome monument was, in I860, erected
near the spot by "certain inhabitants." The other mill in the
parish, known as the Esk Mills, was the first cotton mill in Scot-
land, and was afterwards used as cotton and paper mills, hut is now
entirely devoted to the latter irade. Penicuik House is an elegant
edifice, built about 1701, by Sir James Clerk, and is now tho residence
of Sir Goorge Clerk, Bart. There is a ffood collection of paintings
in it, and Ossian's Hall, the work of Runciman, is much admired.
Sir James also collected a considerable number of Roman antiqui-
ties. To the south of the house is an obelisk erected to the memory
of Allan Ramsay, the poet, who frequently resided here. In this
parish there is also tho line old mansion of New Hall, in tho grounds
which is situated what is generally supposed to be the scene of
Allan Ramsay's fine pastoral " The Gentle Shepherd;" and there
"Hubbies How1' is pointed out. Another romantic glen in tho
adjoining parish of Glencorse has also been claimed as the original
" Habbies How." There is abundance of coal and limestone, the
latter occasionally so hard as to admit of a line polish, and in which
many petrifications ara found. Whinstoue and freestone are also
plentiful, and in Carlope Hill have been discovered specimens of
lead and iron ore. Ironstone mining has in recent years
b-'cime an important industry, both in this parish and that of
Glencorse. There are several chalybeate and petrifying springs in
this quarter; and ou the banks of ihe North Esk, near Spittal Hill,
there is a well, the waters of which have a bitter taste, and are drunk
by tho country people for bowel complaints. Tho ruins of some old
castles and the vestiges of encampments are pointed out in this
district. While there are several small hamlets in the parish of
Pooicuik, the only populous place is the thriving town, which includes
the police burgh of Peiicnik and the contiguous villages of Kirkhill,
FieldkEnd, aud Shottstown. The town is well built, being Beated
on high land, overhanging tho north bank of the North Esk river,
on the road from Edinburgh to Peebles, about fl miles s.w. from the
former, 13 N. from the latter, and 0 s s.w. from Dalkeith. The parish
of Penicuik encloses an area i f 18,830 acres and in 1881 had a popula-
tion of 5.309, and the burgh 3,79:1.
Glencorse, ov Glencrjss, is a small parish in tho cmnty of Mid-
Lothian, containing about three iqnare miles, and at a distance of
six miles s. from Edinburgh. The road to Dumfries, liigyar, Moffat,
Peebles, and Penicuik pusses through it. In the vale of Glencorse,
on the north side ofjthe Esk, are the ruins of a chapel, dedicated to
Saint Catherine. The church is built on an eminence surrounded
by trees. Greenl vw, or Glencorse, has been formed into the 1st
Regimental. district ami depot of the Royal Scots. Milton Bridge
is a small hamlet in this parish. Acreage of the parish, 4,257
Population in 1881, 1,500.
Auchindinnv. is a village in the parish rrf Glencorse, 7*i miles s.
from Edinburgh, on the vo id to LVeules, situated in a romantic dell,
through which flows the North Esk, This place has been long known
for the manufacture of paper, and it has been said that ono of the
first mills established in Scotloud was erected in this locality, and
thore is ono now in operation contiguous to the village. Paper
making was introduced into North Britain about one hundred and
seventy years ago ; previously all stationery articles were imported
regularly from Holland.

EDINBURGHSHIRE
PORTOBELLO,
DUDDINGSTON, JOPPA, ANL> NEIGHBOURHOODS.
PORTOBELLO, a parliamentary burgh and a fashionable watering
place, is situated on a plain on the south side of the Frith of
Forth, and in the parish of Duddingston, with a small part iu the
parish of South Leith. It is three miles from Edinburgh by tbe
turnpike road. The North British railway to Berwick and
Carlisle possesses a Btatiwu near the ceutreof the town and another
at Joppa, thus giving ready access to all parts of the kingdom. Few
towns have risen more rapidly in importance. Little over a century
ago the ground which it occupies was an unproductive waste along
the shore, overspread with whins and bent, affording ready shelter
to the smuggler and to lawless characters from the metropolis. There
was then only one thatched hut of two apartments. " a but and a
ben," which stood until the year 1862, when it was pulled down to
make room for tbe Town Hall, which is built on the site. The
fanciful idea is quite common and generally accepted, that this hut
was built by a sailor who had served under Admiral Vernon at the
Storming of Pnertobello, in the Isthmus of Panama, in the year 1739,
and who had misanthropically secluded himself in what must then
have been a dreary region. For a loug time it was, with the excep-
tion of one or two shepherds' shea-lings, the only habitation in tbe
locality, and was used as an humble hostelry or half-way bouse for
travellers taking the shore road from Musselburgh to Edinburgh.
From the fact that when the present high road, passing through
Jock's Lodge, was formed, the fishwives from the former town, who
were then in the habit of carrying their fish to market in the city in
creels or baskets on their backs, refused to use the new road, but
trudged on in their old path, it came to be known as the " Fishwives'
Causeway.'' A fragment only of this " causeway," which some
suppose to be Roman, but which is more likely to be one of the
roads constructed from the city in Queen Mary's time, still exists ;
railway and otbermodern improvements having made sad havoc of
such works of antiquity. Few if any houses were erected in tbe
neighbourhood of the hut for at least a quarter of a century. In
1765 William Jamiesou, sometimes called" the father of Portobello,"
discovered n valuable bed of clay, which long ages bad laid
down in the estuary of tbe Figget burn. His father (Patrick
Jamieson) was a celebrated builder of his day in Edinburgh. The
extension and improvement of the city, which had began about
that time by the building of the North Bridge and the New Town,
was largely undertaken by him, and building material for iuteriar
walls being much iu demand, the son established a brick and tile
works, a pottery, and afterwards a harbour at the mouth of the burn.
It is worthy of note that the elder Jamiesou was the builder of the
Royal Exchange of Edinburgh in 1753, while the son restored the
Tron church, the steeple of which being of wood, was afterwards
destroyed by fire in 1824. He was also contractor for making the
public drains of the city at an outlay of no less than .£100,000, the
rubbish from the excavations of which was chiefly carried to Porto-
bello to fill up the holos made in course of the manufacture of bricks,
tiles, &c. These works naturally led to the building of workmen's
houses, and the village so formed came to be known as the village of
Figget, and more frequently, perhaps. Brickfield, under which name
We find it designated in A mot's " History of Edinburgh."
During the latter part of the century, however, attracted no doubt
by the beautiful level beach, and the bracing air of th e locality, some
of the citizens of Edinburgh began to erect summer
residences amid the whins and green parks, eastward
of tbe brickworks. Among tbe first of these to be built
was Mr. Jamieson's bouse about 1782, which still stands in Adelpbi
place, though very much altered in appearance. Long afterwards it
was converted iuto u school, and was for some time occupied as the
burgh police and council chambers. The Tower, Shrubmount,
afterwards the residence and the house iu which Hugh Miller died ;
Ramsay Lodge, Park House, and other country residences were
scattered over the ground ; but until well on into the present
century these detached honses must have been few and far between,
for in " ScotlandDalineated," a work written iu 1799,we find " Purto-
Bello " desci'ibed as "a rising village of about S00 inhabitants,
employed in the manufacture of brick, tiles, jars, brown pottery, and
white stoneware," but no reference made to it as a watering place.
In 1S09 a chapel of ease, connected with and subordinate to the Kirk
Session of Duddingston, £was built, of which tbe Rev. John Glen
continued to be the minister until the disruption of 1843.
Within the last eighty years the town has increased very much in
Size and importance, it consists of a main street, the High street,
which form b a part of tbe highway from Edinburgh to Loudon.
Including Joppa, which is now practically a part of the town, the
length of this street is a mile and a quarter. The streets branching
off right and left, the terraces, squares, &c. of handsome houses and
villas are all well built. The majority of these bouses have gardens
in front, which give the town a light and airy appearance. It was
erected into a burgh in 1833, and is governod by a provost, two
bailies, and six councillors. Conjointly with Leith and Musselburgh,
it returns a member to Parliament, the present representative
being R. C. Munro-Ferguson, Esq., who was returned Aug. 26th, 1886.
There are a police, cleaning and lighting establishment, and a lire
brigade. Water of excellent quality is supplied in abundance at
high pressure, and the houses and streets are lighted with f:as.
The magistrates and council have expended a large sum of money
on the drainage of tbe town, which is thorough and complete. They
also constructed a bioud marino promenade, a mile in length, along
the sea beach, in the middle of which stands the Prince of Wales
Fouotain, a very handsome ornamental drinking fountain. There
is also an elegant pier, 1,250 feet loug, with seats capable of accom-
modating 2,000 persons, and a spacious saloon for tbe use of
visitors. Tbe beach is a noble expanse of pnre smooth sand,
affording at all times the greatest facility and safety to bathers, and
there is also a' commodious suite of warm salt water bathB. The
residential accommodation is of all kinds — several hotels, houses of
various sizes and degrees of elegance, and large villas suitable for
first-class families.
The places of worship are in connection with the Church of Scot-
land, tUe Free Church, United Presbyterian, Episcopal, Congrega-
tional, and Roman Catholic ; commodious and handsome Board
schools have been erected, and there are also several private
academies. There are three bauks — branches respectively^ of the
Royal, the National, and the Clydesdale Banking Companies. A
considerable trade is doue in the manufacture of paper, bottles,
pottery, earthenware, bricks, and tiles ; and at Joppa there are salt
works. The scenery is varied and extensive— on one side the noble
estuary of the Forth, with the island of Inchkeith, the hills of Fife
and Kinross, the bay of Alderlady, the fertile lands of East Lothian,
Troplainlaw, North Berwick Law, and in the distance the Bass Rock,
while the coast is studded with numerous picturesque towns and
villages ; and on the other side are Arthur's Seat, Craigmillar Castle,
and tbe Pentland Hills. The air is pure and invigorating, and the
locality very healthy. These immediate local advantages, together
with its proximity to the metropolis, to which there is constant
communication by railway and tramway cars, and tbe easy acceBS
to all parts of the kingdom, combine to render Portobello a most
desirable place either for permanent residence or temporary retire-
ment. In 1881 Portobello (including Joppa) had a population Of
6,926, but it cannot now (1888) be less than 8,000.
Duddingston paiish is bounded by the parish of Canongate, a
part of the ^metropolis on the west; South Leith on tbe north, tbe
sea and part of Inveresk on the east, and Liberton on the south.
The parish derives its name from the settlement here of one Dodin,
during the, reigns of David Land Malcolm IV., at which time the
Barony of Dodinetioun with the church was gifted to Kelso Abbey,
founded by David I. in 1128. It remained in the possession of the
Abbey till the Reformation, when it was secularised and came into
tile possession of a family of the name of Thomson
the last of whom was mado a baronet by Charles I. in 1636.
There are frequent references in the Cnartulery of Kelso to
Dodincston and its founder; among the earliest being one in a
charter granted in the reign of Malcolm IV., making a grant of the
church of Swhaton to the Abbey, in which " Dodine de Dodinestun "
appears as a witness. Dodine also granled to the first Abbot, Her-
bert, the church of Lintun, Buderick. In charters of later dates, the
son of Dodin is a witness to several, particularly iu one by William
de Vetere Ponte to tbe Canons of Holyrood, where he sigps himself
Hugo, Fill us Dodini de Dodinestun. Richard, the eon of Hugo, and
grandson of Dodine, at a subsequent period — between 1221 and 1240
— reuounced any claim he or his predecessors had upon the lands,
they then passed into possession, '* in feaferin1" of a family of the
name of De Boset. The Barony of Duddingston became the pro-
perty of the notorious Duke of Lauderdale in 1674, from whom it
passed with a daughter of his second wife, as pin money, to her
husband, the first Duke of Argyle. Iu 1745 it was sold by bis suc-
cessor to James, Earl of Abercorn, whose successor, the Duke of
{ Abercorn, still holds a large portion of it. From a very early period
I it seems that there have beeu two villages called Easter and
Wester Duddingston, both of which, though considerably reduced
' in population and house accommodation, are otherwise much
, improved in appearance. The mining and weaving populations
which about a century ago occupied them, have entirely disappeared,
in consequence of these two industries having ceased to exist in
the parish. A better class of houses and villas has taken their
place. Wester Duddingston is charmingly situated near tbe base
of Arthur's Seat, and at the east end of the loch which bears its
name. Round Arthur's seat is a noble drive, known as the Queen's
Drive. The church, which is Norman, and of very great antiquity,
occupies a Biuall eminence rising from tbe verge of tbe water.
Though modernised externally, its interior ornaments and arches
appear to be as old as the days of Dodin, and from documentary and
other evidence, it seems to he undoubted that it was built in the
first part of the twelfth century. Duddingston Loch is a beautiful
sheet of water, about tbe third of a mile in length, and not more
than half a mile from the southern outskirts of Edinburgh. There
js an excellent road between Duddingston and Portobello. The
parish encloses an area of 1,731 acres, and contained in 1881 a popu-
lation of 7,830.
Joppa, before mentioned, intimately connected with, and now a
part of the burgh of Portobello, is of modern growth. Its salt works
and quarries have been wrought for many years, but the latter are
now worked out. Coal at one time was found in great abundance,
but in consequence of the flooding of the pits, which stood near the
sea, in 1790, the works have been entirely abandoned. From its
proximity to the beach and rocks, Joppa is a favourite resort of
summer visitors. There are numbers of neat villas built near the
road, nearly all of which are laid out for tbeir accommodation.

RATHO,
KIRKLISTON, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
RATHO is a small village situated about eight miles w. by s. from
Edinburgh, nearly in the centre of its parish, and contiguous to
the Edinburgh and Glasgow railway and the Union canal, by
which communication it has ready access to the capital and in-
termediate district. The parish, which is about four miles long and
three broad, and abounds in whinstone, comprises an area of
6,147 acres ; it lies in the middle between the Pentland Hills and
the Frith of Forth. The east part is flat and fertile, but the ground
rises gradually towards the west. Dalmahoy, the principal residence
of the Earl of Morton, and Hatton, formerly belonging to the family
of Lauderdale, both beautiful and elegant seats, arc in this parish :
these with the plantations of Addison give a rich and pleasant
aspect to the country. Agriculture is carried on with spirit and
success. The parish church is an irregular building, having been
originally erected in the 12th century. It was restored in the 17tli
and again in the earlier part of this century, and portions of all
three erections being now in use, it is altogether an interesting
structure. The public school is spacious and well atteuded. There
is also an Episcopalian church on the Dalmahoy estate, and a
Roman Catholic church has been erected in the parish. The
population in 1881 was 1, 815 ; of this number the village had 718.
Kirkliston is partly in Mid-Lothian, and extends into Linlith-
gowshire ; the village is eight miles w. from Edinburgh, situated on
the left bank of the Almond, on the road to Falkirk. This place was
anciently called Temple-Liston, from the circumstance of the
Knights-Templars having formerly an establishment here. The
village is well built, ibut of limited trade; distilling and grinding
corn are the principal branches. The church is neat, and its
situation remarkably pleasant. The surface of the country is
agreeably varied by rising ground— is rich, well culivated, and
produces excellent crops. Here Lord Stair first introduced tba
culture of cabbage in fch'o open fields. Within a field on the east
side of the Almond stands a remarkable monument of antiquity,
called the Catstane, erected at a period too remote for conjecture.
It stands four feet and a half above the ground, and is about eleven
feet and a half in circumference; its surface bears a dilapidated
inscription, which has puzzled the skill of antiquarians to decipher.
About a mile from Kirkliston is Newlistou House, principally
erected and finished by John Earl of Stair, and now the elegant seat
of Thomas Alexander Hog, Esq. The house is handsome and
modern, the plantations extensive and tastefully disposed. Area
of the parish, 9,505 acres ; population in 1881, 2,580.

ELGINSHIRE
CO designated from the name of its capital, Elgin, and sometimes Morayshire, from beiug the central division of the " Province
1J of Moray," is one of the northern counties of Scotland ; bounded on the north by that branch of the North Sea called the Moray
Frith, on the east and south-east by Banffshire; on the south-west by Inverness-shire, and on the west by tho latter county and also
that of Nairn. The figure of Elginshire is very irregular, being intersected in several places by districts of the counties which form
its boundaries ; with Nairn it is so intimately connected, that, in speaking of its shape, that small county is not unfrequently included
in the description. Thus conjoined, the district is somewhat of a triangular figure— with the apex pointed inland— and in this quarter
partaking of the wild, rocky and mountainous character of the Highlands, The county miy bo s lid to co uprise 473 square miles of
land, and extends from north to south forty miles, and from east to west twenty miles. Both in point of size and in population, Elgin
ranks as the eighteenth amongst Scottish counties. For many years past agricultural improvements have been made with rapid
strides, and the greater portion of the waste land is now either brought into cultivation or planted with forest trees. In ancient times
the limits of the cuunty were much more extensive than at present, comprehending all that tract of country whiih lies between tho
river Spey on the oast, the Beauly ou the north-west, and tho northern confines of Argyleshiru on tho south-west. The romaius of
antiquity aro numerous, of which the cathedral of Elgin, the Bishop's palace at Spynie, the priory of Piuscardiue, the estates of
Lochindorh and Dunphj.il, and the "dun" of Relugas, are the chief. Of tho struggles of the natives with the Danes, who infested
the district in former ages, there are various testimonials, such as "cairns," monumental pillars, Ac, &c. The " Province of Moray,"
ancieutly so important and extensive, in the present day is without any political distinction, and is divided into three several shires
of Banff, Moray {or Elgiu), and Nairn. On the east it is separated from Aberdeenshire by the Deverou ; on the west it is houuded by
Inverness-shire, and on the north it has the largo arm of tho sea, designated from it the Moray Frith. So late as the time of Charles
I., the Highlanders considered Moray as a sort of neutral laud, where every man was at liberty to take his prey. The province of
Moray suffered more, perhaps, than any other district in Scotland by the civil wars. The people were then generally attached to the
covenant, and, as Montrose made it one of his principal scenes of action, it is easy to conceive that its peaceable farmers were not
permitted to have both their opinions and their goods undisturbed. Montrose, in his descent upon Moray, in lGio, after his victory
of Inuerlochy, destroyed all the houses of such as did not join his standard, aud gave up the towns of Banff, Cullen, and Elgin to
indiscriminate pillage.
Soil, Surface, Climate, Produce, &c— The soil of this counly, though Iobb uniform than that of Banffshire, is for the most part
a sandy loam — in some places a sandy gravel ; considerable tracts arc of very fertile clay, and of the most genial mould. The low
country may be pictured as a large plain, extending from the Spey westward, between the shore and a range of mountains, fur the
whole length of the district, nearly forty miles — but of unequal breadth, from about five to twelve miles or more, measured in a
straight line from the bills to the shore; this plain, howerer, is diversified over its whole extent by ridges of luwer hills in general
nearly parallel to the shore; beyond this are valleys of great fertility and beauty, near the sources of the rivers Spey, Lossie aud Find-
horn, with the lesser vales along tho banks of the tributary streams which pervade tho intervening hills. Within the range of
the mountain district the country may he described as chiefly pastoral; the arable land, in most instance,--, hanging upon the acclivi-
ties of the valleys, or stretching out in narrow plains upon the banks of tho wnters which wind among the hills—the widenoss of the
valley bearing a relativo proportion to the size of the river. Tho upper part of the county is popularly termed " the Brae of Moray ; "
and is mountainous and woody, aud abounds in beautiful lakes. Agriculture is pursued in a spirited manner, and the laud in general
yields a higher rent than that of the neighbouring shires. In the lower part of the county, the Earl of File and other proprietors formed
plantations to so great an extent that almost every part of the laud inaccessible to the plough has been covered with different
species of forest trees. Except sandstone, limestone, and marl, no mineral substance of value has been discovered in this district.
The south of this county produces principally oats, but in tho north is unsurpassed for the quantity and quality of tho crops of turnips,
potatoes, barley, and wheat. To the breeding and rearing of cattle much attention is devoted, the polled Aberdeenshire and the pure
short-homed being the breeds most highly prized. Little can he said respecting manufactures ; woollen stuffs are made to a email
amount, which, together with grain, cattle, salmon, hewu freestone, wood and whiskey, comprehend the principal exports, the chief
imports being coal, iron, timber, and manures. There are also ship aud boat building yards, breweries, tanneries, &c. Herring fishing
is prosecuted at several villages ou the coast, and fine salmon fishing at the mouths of the Spey and Fiudhorn, and all along the sea
coasts. The coast of this district, although within the lifty-eighth degree of north latitude, has ever been distiuguished for the mild-
ness of its climate ; the hardier kind of fruit, all the varieties of the Apple, and almost all of the pear and of tho plum, by a little
attention maybe abundantly produced on every farm ; whilst flowers and fruit of the more rare species are brought to perfection in the
gardens and orchards of this county. With respect to the winds, the most prevalent gales are from the i orth-west. This part of the
country presents no object so elevated as to attract the clouds or impede their course; and from this cause, it is concluded, falls of
snow are comparatively unfrequeut and of small depth, as they are drifted over the subjacent levels iusomuch that the operations of
husbandry are but little interrupted by the inclemency of the weather. It is asserted that in the lower parts of the Moray tho climate
is as warm, and the atmosphere at least as dry, as iu any district in Scotland ; in the higher quarter tho weather is more mild thau in
the adjoining county of Banff, at tho same distance from tho sea coast — a natural consequence of its local position, the progress of
cultivation, and the inherent warmth of the soil.
Rivers, Lakes, and Railways.— Tho principal rivers are the Spey, tho Fiudhorn, and the Lossie, all (lowing iu a northerly direction,
and each teeming with the finest salmon. There are many delightful lakes, of which Loch Spynie is most deserving of notice; it is
three miles in length and one in breadth, and appears to have been formerly a firth of the sea, though it is now shut up at the east
and west by a long extent of valuablo ground. In accordance with this apparency, tho land between the lake and the sea still retains
the appellatiou of Ross Isle; and a corroborative proof of the accuracy of the popular designation is exhibited by the sea-shells (par-
ticularly those of the oyster) that are found on the margin of the lake, several feet below the surface of tho earth. Loch Spynie
nourishes several of the aquatic tribes, but none in such abundance as the perch nud the pike. Tho Railways in this county are tho
Great North ot Scotland and the Highland lines, which have stations at Elgin and other towns.
Divisions, Representation, &c— Elginshire comprehends sixteen parishes and six parts of parishes ; it contains two royal burghs
ELiilN and Forres ; the former unites with Cullen, Banff, Inverurie, Kiutore, and Peterhead in returning one member to Parliament; and
the county at large, in conjunction with Nairnshire, deputes another member. The present representative is Charles Henry Anderson
Esq. The parliamentary constituency in 18S7-68 was 5,252. The lord-lieutenant is the Right Hon. the Earl of Fife, k.t. By the census
returns for 1871, the county contained a population of 20,001 males, and 23,067 females ; total, 43,128 ; in 1881, the figures were : males
20,725; females, 23,063; total, 43,788, showing an increase during the ten years of 660. The valuation of the county for 1887-88 was
exclusive of railways, £159,217, and of railways, £22,831 ; total, £181,098,

perfect safety. This was anciently a Roman as well as a Danish
Btatiou ; the remaius of a fort of the latter nation are still visible,
also a well dug out of the solid roelt, which is known by the name of
the Roman well. The occupation of the inhabitants is fishing for
salmon, herring, and end. There is also a chemical works, at which

TjiDENKILLIE is a parish lying to tho south of Forres. The church,
.J/J which is near the centre of the parish, is about 9 miles s. from
Forres, iu a most romantic situatiuu. It stands on the bauks of the
Divie, a black tumbling stream that dashes from rock to rock along
the bottom of deep narrow ravines, and a little further down falls
iuto the Findhorn. The woods of Daruaway on tho west, and Altyro
and Logie on the east, are very extensive and unsurpassed in
beauty. The viaduct, which carries the Inverness aud Perth
Junction railway over the Divie, near the church of Edenkillie,
is said to bo the finest bridge in the north of Scotland. It has seven
arches, and the height from the surface of frtio water to the rails is
about 110 feet. Acreage, 33,466. Population in 1881, 1,175.

ELGINSHIRE
SLATER'S
ELGIN,
WITH THE VILLAGE
OF LOSSIEMOUTH, ALYES NEW SPYNIE, BIENIE, BISHOP MILL, LHANBRYD, AND
NEIGHBOURHOODS.
ELGIN ia a royal burgli, the capital of its shire, and the Beat of a
presbytery in the synod of Moray ; 189 n?ile9 n. of Edinburgh
by way of Aberdeen, and 153 by way of Brechin and Huntly, S3 n. of
Brechin, 64 w. of Aberdeen, 89 ne. of Inverness, 12 e. by n. of
Forres, and 9 w. of Fochabers; pleasantly situated on tlie riglit bank
of the river LoBsie, about 5 miles above its influx into the Moray
Firth, at Lossiemouth, and surrounded by hills o'erclad with waviug
pine, beech, oak, and elm trees. It is the general supposition turn
the town was originally a settlement of Helgy, a general of the army
of Sigurd, the Norwegian Earl of Orkney, who, about tlie year 927,
conquered Caithness, Sutherland, Ross, and Moray, and it is said
that from this person the name of Elgin is derived ; aud as the word
Helgyn is still used in the inscription upon the seal of the town, it
is probable that this etymology is correct. So early as the reign of
William the Lion, a castle was built here, the ruins of which are
still visible on an eminence called Lady Hill, on tlie north-west side
ol the town. It is new the site of a monumental column erected by
public subBcription, in memory of the last Duke of Gordon. In 1224,
Andrew, Bishoo of Moray, translated tlie bishopric from Spynie to
the Church of the Holy Trinity, near Elgin; but the cathedral whs
burned down by Alexander Stewart, Lord of Badenoch (commonly
called the Red Wolf of Badenocb), son of Robert II., in 1390, who was
iorced from his fastness, in Lockerbie, to do pem-nce for the deed.
About the year 1414 it was rebuilt in a magnificent manner. From
what still remains, it appearB ito have been it large and superb
edifice, in the Gothic style ol architecture, two hundred and sixty-
four feet in length, and thirty-five in breadth. The chapter-house,
which still remains pretty entire, and was some years since repaired
aud covered with a roof of lead by the Exchequer, is a specimen of
tasteful architecture; and the wli.de, when perfect, is supposed to
have been one of the most magnificent religious structures in
Europe. The ruins, which are carefully preserved by the Commis-
sioners of Woods and Forests, form a conspicuous object ou the
approach to Elgin from the east; while, as a beautiful contrast, im-
mediately opposite, towards tlie south, stands Anderson's Institution
for the support of old age and tlie education of youth, a fine modem
structure, erected by the munificent bequest of Major-Geueral
Andrew Anderson, H.E.I.C.S., a native of this place, and of very poor
parentage. The funds for the support of this institution are between
£70,000 and £80,U00. The structure is iu the Grecian stile, and
occupies about an acre of ground ; it is surmounted by a handsome
dome, and on the pediment iu front, which is supported by four
massive Btone pillars, is placed a statue of the benefactor, repre-
sented in the attitude oi delivering a bible to a youthful figure,
whilst with his right hand he is supporting the figure of an aged
man. The building cost about £8,000. The apartments for the aged
are in the west wing; those for the scholars of the Institution, ol
whom there are fifty children of tlie working classes, who are wholly
supported and educated in the establishment, arc in the east wing.
At the back, or south wing, ia the Free School, where the children
receive a free education, but are supported at homo ; the number of
these average* from two hundred and fifty to three hundred. The
western extremity of the town is embellished by Gray's
Hospital, a noble and modern structure. Dr. Alexander Gray,
of India, a native of Elgin, by will bequeathed £30.090 for the
purpose of erecting aud endowing a hospital for the sick poor
of this town and county. This building is delightfully seated upon
an eminence, and has a line portico, supported by stately pillars,
and surm runted by an elegant dome ; the whole is spacious and
built of stone, according to a design furnished by Mr. Gillespie, of
Edinburgh. Another handsome building of importance is the Elgin
Club House, situated in Commerce street. This building is in the
Italian style of architecture and contaius a reading room, thirty by
twenty-five feet ; entrance hall and billiard-room, over forty-one by
twenty-five, and eighteen feet in height. There are also card-rooms,
keepers' apartments, aud all other accessories finished and fitted up
in an excellent manner from the desigus of Messrs. Reid, of Elgin.
The principal street of the town is about a mile in length, widening
in the centre, where Btands the Established church, a beautiful
modern structure, after a plan by Archibald Simpson, Esq. ; it. is
calculated to seat a congregation of two thousand. The western
pediment is supported by six massive lluted columns, and at the
east end is a lofty tower, sunnouuted by a figure of Demosthenes'
lauteru, supported by eight columns. The building cost about £8,000.
On the west of it is a raised and spacious pavement, used as a market
place for farmers' produce, and also a beautiful fountain, which has
an imposing effect. In North street, commencing about the middle
of the town, arc many fine buildings, particularly the Trinity Lodge
Rooms, a handsome edifice erected in 1821, after a design by Mr.
Burns, of Edinburgh, at a cost of £3,000. This street ia tastefully
terminated by the Trinity or Scottish Episcopal chapel, a neat
Gothic edifice, erected in 1825. During the last few years Elgin has
very considerably increased in extent, aud on the south side whole
streets of villas have bevn erected, and many of the old buildings,
which obtruded themselves on the front of the High street, have
been pulled down and new structures raised in their place. There
are two good hotels, the Gordon Arms, in High street, and the
Station Hotel, facing the Great North of Scotland Railway Btation,
which have every accommodation for private families and com-
mercial gentlemen. Two newspapers are published here— the Elgin
Courant, on TueBday and Friday, and the Moray and Nairn Express
on Saturday. A handsome Town and County Hall has recently been
erected, at a coBt of upwards of £8,000. It stands upon an eminence,
and as seen from the Railway is, with its lofty tower, a very
imposing addition to the architectural features of the south side of
the town ; it is built in the Jacobean style, from plans by Mr. A.
Marshall Mackenzie, architect, Aberdeen. An Academy, in the
classical style, with Roman-Doric portico, from the plans of Messrs.
A, & W. Reid, architects, Elgin, was built in 1886, at a cost of £5,000.
The Muckle Cross of Elgin, which was destroyed about 1790, has
been restored and presented to the town by Mr. Macandrew, of
Westwood House, Essex. It is a fac simile ol the former one, and
occupies the same site iu High street. The cost was £350, In
High street are the hanking houses — highlyrespectable branches of
the British Linen Company, the Commercial Bank of Scotland,
Limited, the Bank of Scotland, the North of Scotland Bank, Limited,
the Caledonian Banking Co. Limited, the Union Bank of Scotland,
Limited, the Royal Bank of Scotland, and a Savings Bank.
The trade of this burgh cannot be considered extensive, being
situated in an agricultural district, and principally depending
thereupon; it was, however, greatly increased by the opening of the
Great. North of Scotland and Morayshire Railway. There is a
woollen manufactory which employs ■many hands, and an iron
foundry and saw mills. Of the other branches, a trade in corn,
wool, aud timber is of some consequence, and there is a large tan-
nery, while iu the neighbourhood are the famous distilleries of
Milton Duff, Gleulo^sie, and Linkwood, also lime works and a stono
quarry. Alexander II., in 1224, granted to the burgesses of Elgin a
guild of merchant*, which still continue?, though the funds of the
corporation were, for a considerable period, merged in the common
good; connected with the guild ry there is a flourishing charity
fund from which decayed members and their families derive sub-
stantial pensions. The municipal government is vested in a provost,
four bailies, and twelve councillors. The burgh joins witu Banff,
Cutlen, Inverurie, Kintore and Peterhead in returning one member
to Parliament, too present representative being Alexander A slier,
Esq. There are several mineral springs iu the vicinity of Elgin, aud
from the healing virtues of their waters, with the salubrity of the
climate, many are supposed to have derived considerable benefit.
The weekly corn markets are held on Friday; the cattle markets
are held on the third Friday in the months of January, February,
March, April, the second Friday in May, the third Tuesday and last
Friday in July, the third Tuesday and last Friday in Juue, August,
September and October, and second Friday in November, and. the
third Wednesday in December. The feeing markets are held on the
20th May, if Friday, if not, Friday before, the first Friday iu July
(harvest), and the Friday before the 28th November, Population of
Elgin in 1871, 8 604, in 1881, 9,843.
Alves is a small parish some 6% miles long by 5J£ miles wide,
situated about 5 miles e. of Elgin. It contains an Established and
a Free church, and two schools. Acreage, 9,404. Population in 1881
1,117.
Bihnie is a parish of G,777 acres, distant about 3 miles s. of Elgin,
and is 7 miles in length, and averages about oue and three-fourths
in breadth. The church is supposed to be the oldest iu Scotlaud.
Population in 1881, 867.
On the opposite bank of the Lossio to that of Elgin is the village
of Bishop Mill, in the parish of New Spynie, the superior of which
is the Earl of Seafield. It contains a few uf tlie trades usually found
in a country village, corn mills, and a public school.
Lossiemouth is a large village, iu tlie parish ol Drainie, 5 miles n.
from Elgin, situated ou the banks of the Lossic, at its inllux with
the Moray Firth, from which locality its name is derived. It is the
seoport of Elgin, and was fast advancing into importance, but since
18(57 its trade has been gradually declining. Most of the town is
regularly laid out, and is a resort for sea-bathers. Several gentle-
men, resident in Elgin, have erected villas in which they reside
during the summer mouths. A now harbour was opened in 1839, and
has since been improved, which renders it a safe and commodious
haven for shipping. The cost of this erection amounted to £20,000.
The improvement of the harbour, aud tho facilities of railway com-
munication, which this village bus now enjoyed for several years,
have given a stimulus to the trade, which has rendered it one of the
most important seaports north of Aberdeen. A new Town Hall was
opened on February 2nd, 1885, by Sir George Macphersou Grant, of
Balliudalloch, m.p. and Mrs. Dunbar Brander, Pitgaveuy. The
cost of the building was about £1,100. A new Free church, built
on an imposing site commanding an extensive view of the Moray
Firth, replaces one destroyed lire some three years aga. It is in the
early English Gothic siyle,aud its handsome octagon tower and spire
serves as a notable landmark to mariners. It cost upwards of £2,000.
The acreage of the parish of Draiuie is 6,949, and its population
in 1881 was 3,991.
New Spynie is a parish lying to the north of and adjoining Elgin
and4contoius the village of Bishop Mill. Acreage, 5,946. Popula-
tion in 1881, 1,620.
St. Andrew's Lhanbryd, — This parish comprehends what were
originally two— St. Andrew's and Lhanbryd — the former including
Linkwood and Barmuckity; the latter lay to the ea&t of St.
Andrew's, aud comprehended the lands of Coxtou, Patuaseir, &c.
Acreage, 9,197. Population in 1881, 1,396.
About 3 mileB e. of Elgin, and in the above-named parish, is the
neat village of Lhanbryd, having a good inn, saw mill, woollen mill,
a few well-stored Bhops, schools, Ac. It is uoteworthy for its
geological productions.

FOCHABERS,
SPEYMOUTH, GARMOUTH, KINGSTON, URQUHART, AND NEIGHBOURHOODS.
TpOCHABERS is a small town and burgh of barony, in the parish i
■*- of Bellie, 52 miles e. by n. of Inverness, 12 s.w. of Cnllen,9 e. of
Elgin, and 8 n.n.w. of Keith ; situated on the great north road from
Edinburgh and Aberdeen to Inverness, and occupying a rural site I
in a deep valley, through which the Spey runs at a little distance to
the West of the town. The houses are neatly built, and the streets!
diverge from a squarp, in the centre of which stands the parish:
church, and near to it is an Episcopalian and a Free church;,
there is also a large chapel for Roman Catholics. An elegant stone I
bridge, which crossed the Spey near the town, was partly swept '
away by the great floods which occurred in the summer of 1829; it j
has subsequently been rebuilt. This is not an important town as
respeots trade. Its thoroughfare situation contributes somewhat
to its prosperity, which is likewise assisted by the genteel neigh-
bourhood by which it is surrounded. Fochabers is a burgh, and is
governed by a baton bailie appointed by the Duke of Richmond and
Gordon, whose seat (Gordon Castle), graces the vicinity nf the town,
and is the great object of attraction to and admiration of straugers.
It is allowed to be one of the most magnificent structures, aud, per-
haps, the finest mansion north of the Firth of Forth. The edifice
wag orginally a gloomy tower iu the centre of a morass, called the
472
Bug of Gight, and accessible only by a narrow causeway and a
drawbridge. It is now a vast quadrangular structure, the front
stretching to the length of 563 feet, surrounded by a beautiful park,
and equally beautiful country. It is approached by a gateway at the
west end of the town. The body of the building rises to the height
of four lofty storeys, and on each eud 13 a pavilion of two storeys,
connected by a gallery of twu lower storeys. The ancient tower,
which is 90 feet high, overlooks the whole structure, and commands
a view of the entire plain, with all its waving woods and the wind-
ings of the river Spey. The busts and pictures which grace the iu-
teiior of this noble residenoe are most valuable, comprising many
rare and original gems of art. At the eastern end of the town stands
an elegant building in the Elizabethan Btyle of architecture ; this is
a free school, founded by Alexander Milne, Esq., a native of Focha-
bers. By his will, dated Now Orleans, 17th October, 1836, he be-
queathed to the parishes of Bollio aud Ordifish the snm of 100,000
dollars for establishing a free school. The cost of erecting the
building amounted to £4,338, about £ 17,000 being invested in herit-
ablo security, yielding an aunsal income of £740, by means of which
500 children are educated.
DIRECTORY
FOCHABERS
ELGINSHIRE
The parish of Bellie, of which Fochabers is the kirk town, is
partly in thia county and partly in Banffshire. It is 6 miles in length
by 4 in breadth, bound ed by the sea on the north, and on the south-
east by Rathven and Boharm. The county of Moray conies here,
east of the Spey to a small extent, and on this piece oi ground,
which is in the parish of Bellie, stands tho town of Fochabers.
Fairs are held at Fochabors on tho third Thursdays in January and
February, fourth Wednesday in March, fourth Thursday in April,
fourth Thursday in May, first Thursday in July, second Wednesday
in August, and" first Thursdays iu October and December. The
entire parish of Bellie, which covers an area of 12,927 acres,
contained in 1381 a population of 2,365, of which 1,189 belonged to
Fochabers.
Urquhart is a parish of 13,066 acres, extending from the river
Spey to tho river Lossio, a distance of about 6 miles, the breadth
being about 5 miles. The village of Urquhart is very small, and
about a mile and a half from Lhanbryd. The populatiou of Urquhart
parish in 1881 was 2,139.
Gakmouth and Kingston are small villages in the quoad sacra
parish of Speymuuth, but locally in the civil parish of Urquhart,
with which parish the populatiou is returned; they aro between
4 and 5 miles N.w. of Fochabers, the former situated at the
mouth of tho Spoy, on its left bank. The principal trado is ship
building, and the exportation of corn, timber, and salmon — of
the latter considerable quantities are sent principally to London
and other southern markets. The imports are guano, bone mannret
timber and coal. The port formerly had a good harbour, formed
by the mouth of the Spey, and here a number of vessels have been
built entirely of native wood, A fair is held on the 80th of June
(new stylo).
